Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces beef sirloin steaks
- 1 cup unsalted breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons water
- 3 tablespoons canola oil
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a shallow dish, mix the unsalted breadcrumbs, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, and sweet paprika. Stir until well combined.
3. In a separate shallow dish, place the whole wheat flour.
4. In another bowl, beat the egg with water to create an egg wash.
5. Dredge each steak piece in the flour, shaking off any excess.
6. Dip the flour-coated steak into the egg wash, allowing excess to drip off.
7. Coat the steak fully in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing firmly to ensure the breadcrumbs adhere well.
8. Heat the canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
9. Once the oil is hot, add the breaded steaks to the skillet. Cook each side for about 3-4 minutes until golden brown but not cooked through.
10. Transfer the steaks to the prepared baking sheet.
11. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the steaks are cooked to your desired level of doneness.
12. Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
13. Serve hot, garnished with freshly ground black pepper or fresh herbs if desired.
