Beef Milanesa

Directions

1. 1
   Pound boneless steaks thin, 1/4 inch.
2. 2
   In a shallow soup plate or pan, beat the egg very well. In a second shallow pan mix the flour, salt, and pepper. Put the bread crumbs in a third shallow pan. Line up the bowls in this order: flour, egg, crumbs.
3. 3
   Dust the meat lightly with flour, dip into the beaten egg, and coat with bread crumbs. Put the breaded meat on a plate lined with wax paper and refrigerate about 1 hour.
4. 4
   In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil to a depth of about 1/4 inch.
5. 5
   Fry the meat until brown and crisp, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Squeeze lime juice over each piece of meat, if desired.
