Steak

Toppings

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef

    Season the beef steak with salt and black pepper on both sides. Let it sit for about 15 minutes to absorb the seasoning.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three separate shallow bowls, place the all-purpose flour in the first bowl, beat the eggs in the second bowl, and place the breadcrumbs in the third bowl.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Bread the Steak

    Dredge each steak in the flour, shaking off any excess. Dip the floured steak in the beaten eggs, ensuring it is fully coated, then coat it with breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

  2. 4

    Fry the Steaks

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded steaks and fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked to your desired doneness.

  3. 5

    Drain and Rest

    Remove the fried steaks from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil. Let them rest for a few minutes.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Prepare the Toppings

    Wash and dry the lettuce leaves. Slice the tomato into thin rounds.

  2. 7

    Assemble the Dish

    Spread mayonnaise on each steak. Top with lettuce and tomato slices. Serve immediately.
