The recipe today is for dinner so it is served with gravy and herbed mashed potatoes. When shopping, ensure to choose thin steaks as they are more tender which means less cooking time. Salt and pepper are the typical seasonings but you can try other spices. If you want that juicy meat, pour 1 tablespoon of Tabasco sauce into the egg wash. Thyme, chives, garlic and parsley are some of the seasonings worth trying for this dish. Buttermilk is also a great substitute to regular milk.
