How to Make Parmesan Steak
Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
Before starting, gather all the ingredients needed for this delicious Parmesan steak. This ensures a smooth cooking process.
Step 2: Season the Meat
Peel and finely chop the garlic. Place the steaks on a plate, add salt, and rub it in with clean fingers to evenly distribute the seasoning.
Step 3: Prepare the Egg Mixture
Crack the eggs into a shallow dish and beat them with a fork. Add a small amount of water to dilute the mixture and set aside. Pour the breadcrumbs into a large container for coating.
Step 4: Bread the Steaks
Dip each steak into the egg and water mixture, ensuring both sides are coated. Then, coat the steak with breadcrumbs. Repeat the process one more time, passing the steak through the eggs again and then back into the breadcrumbs for an extra crispy crust. Repeat for all steaks.
Step 5: Fry the Steaks
Heat a large pan over medium heat. Once hot, fry the steaks in batches to maintain the oil temperature. Once golden brown, place them on a serving dish and set aside.
Step 6: Prepare the Tomato Sauce
Peel and finely chop the onion. Heat a pan with a little oil and sauté the onion for about 2 minutes until lightly golden. Pour in the tomato sauce and let it simmer for about 2 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Step 7: Assemble and Bake
Place the fried steaks in a baking dish and pour the tomato sauce over them. Top with mozzarella cheese slices. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (392°F) for about 15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and golden.
Step 8: Serve and Enjoy
Remove from the oven and serve this delicious Parmesan steak with white rice and crispy shoestring potatoes. Enjoy your meal!
