Milanesa

I LOVE milanesa, it's basically a mexican chicken fried steak with no gravy, I sprinkle with lemon and serve with my Easy Mexican Rice, salad and sliced avocado.

• Ready In: 35 mins
• Serves: 4-6
• Yields: 6 pieces

Ingredients

• 1  lb  thinly sliced top round steaks (1/4 inch thick) or 1  lb  rib eye (1/4 inch thick)
• 15 -20  saltine crackers, finely crushed
• 1  tablespoon garlic powder
• 1  tablespoon onion powder
• 1⁄2 cup flour
• 1 -2  egg (add a touch of milk for egg wash)
•  salt
•  pepper
•  olive oil (for frying, or whatever kind of oil you like to use to fry.)

Directions

1. Heat Oil.
2. Salt and Pepper flour on one plate.
3. Make Egg Wash.
4. Crush Saltines, I use a food processor, adding in garlic powder, onion powder and pepper. Put crumbs on another plate. (No need to add salt as the saltines are salty enough.).
5. I usually cut the steaks in half to fit in the frying pan, but you can leave them in one big piece if the steaks will fit in yours.
6. Dip steak in flour, then egg then cover with saltine crumbs.
7. Fry in oil for about 3-5 minutes on each side until nicely browned. It won't take long because the steaks are so thin.
8. Drain on Paper Towels.
9. OPTIONAL: Serve with Avocado, Pico de Gallo, Salad, Rice and/or Beans and sprinkle steaks with lemon juice.
