Milanesa Sandwich A breaded and fried cutlet of beef or chicken inside a fresh sandwich roll. Typically garnished with toppings such as lettuce, tomato, mayonnaise, and sometimes cheese or ham, it offers a delightful combination of flavors and textures. The dish is a perfect blend of crunchy and juicy, making it a favorite for quick meals on the go.

Ingredients:

• 1 boneless beef or chicken cutlet (about 150g)
• 50g flour
• 1 egg, beaten
• 100g breadcrumbs
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 tablespoon dried oregano
• 50g lettuce leaves
• 1 tomato, sliced
• Mayonnaise or mustard (optional)
• Sandwich roll or baguette (1 roll)
• 100ml vegetable oil (for frying)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Cutlet: Season the beef or chicken cutlet with salt, pepper, and oregano. If the cutlet is thick, pound it with a mallet to make it thinner and tender.

2. Coat the Cutlet: Dredge the cutlet in flour, ensuring it’s coated on all sides. Dip it in the beaten egg, then press it into the breadcrumbs until fully covered.

3. Fry the Cutlet: Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the cutlet for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain excess oil on a paper towel.

4. Assemble the Sandwich: Slice the sandwich roll or baguette in half. Spread mayonnaise or mustard (optional) on the bread, then place the fried milanesa cutlet inside. Add lettuce, tomato slices, and any additional toppings you prefer.

5. Serve: Serve the sandwich warm with a side of fries or salad.
