Ingredients:
  • 4 Certified Angus Beef ® top round steaks, 4 ounces each, pounded to 1/2- inch thick
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 small yellow onion, sliced
  • 8 ounces sliced cremini mushrooms
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper, divided
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 2 cups finely crushed club crackers
  • 1 bottle Spray oil
  • 8 slices Swiss cheese, 1/4 inch thick
Instructions:
  1. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in onions, sauté 5 minutes. Stir in mushrooms and 1/2-teaspoon salt; sauté 5 more minutes. Remove from heat.
  2. Season steaks with 1-teaspoon salt and 1/2-teaspoon pepper.
  3. Arrange three bowls: 1) flour seasoned with remaining 1/2-teaspoon salt and remaining 1/2-teaspoon pepper, 2) milk and egg, 3) cracker crumbs. Dredge beef in seasoned flour, then egg wash, finally coat with cracker crumbs. Spray each cutlet evenly with spray oil.
