Malanesas


THIS WAS SO DELICIOUS! I am very excited that Nina shared this recipe with me and taught me how to cook it! It is super simple but takes about 12-48 hours to marinade to be delicious!So make sure you do it before you leave for work that day and place in fridge or the night before! 

What ya need...........
Melanesas (Mexican –Chicken-Fried-Steak)
6-8 Thin sliced steaks
2 Lemons
2 Limes
Cilantro
1 Onion
2 tbs Cumin
1 tbs Salt&Pepper
3 cups of Italian Bread Crumbs
2 eggs
1 Large Zip lock bag
Vegetable Oil

Marinate steaks overnight if possible.  Take 1 large zip lock bag place your steaks in the bag.  Juice 1 Lemon and Lime and pour in bag, slice half an onion, hand full of cilantro, 2 tbs of cumin, slice 1 lemon, sprinkle  salt and pepper in bag, shake the bag with all the ingredients.  Put the bag in fridge to marinate. 

Next take two eggs scramble in a bowl (add a tbs of milk to make thinner), take 3 cups of Italian bread crumbs and place in a glass tray. 

Take steaks out of the bag; dip each steak one at a time in egg batter, then place in bread crumbs cover both sides of the steak and press down. 

Heat up a pan with the vegetable oil on medium heat.

Place one to two steaks in pan at a time fry till browned on each side. (Sorry i didn't get a pick of them frying in pan) You may also get some Corona- Mexican beer to enjoy with all this yumminess. Nina the Mexican not included! haha

When you serve the steaks slice lime and squeeze on top! Enjoy!
