Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound beef sirloin, thinly sliced
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.5 cup coconut flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup ghee or coconut oil
- 1 whole lemon wedges
Instructions
Start by pounding the beef slices to about 1/4 inch thickness using a meat mallet to ensure even cooking.
Set up a breading station: In a shallow bowl, beat the eggs until well combined. In a separate shallow dish, combine almond flour, coconut flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Dip each piece of beef into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off.
Then coat the beef in the flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere the coating.
In a large skillet, heat ghee or coconut oil over medium-high heat until hot.
Carefully add the coated beef slices to the skillet, cooking in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
Cook each piece for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.
Transfer cooked schnitzels to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
Serve the beef schnitzel hot with fresh lemon wedges on the side.
