Notes
Bonus tips:
- Prepare all the ingredients before cooking: Stir-frying happens quickly, so it’s essential to have all the ingredients chopped and ready to go before starting. This includes slicing the meat, chopping the vegetables, and mixing the sauce.
- Use high heat: Stir-frying is all about cooking quickly over high heat. Make sure your wok or frying pan is hot before adding the oil and ingredients. This will help to create the deliciously crispy texture and flavour that stir-fry is known for.
- Add vegetables in order of cooking time: Some vegetables, like onions and bell peppers, cook faster than others, like broccoli and carrots. To ensure all the vegetables are cooked to the desired level of tenderness, add them to the pan in order of cooking time, starting with the vegetables that take the longest to cook.
- Don’t overcook the vegetables: Overcooked vegetables can become mushy and lose their vibrant colour and flavour. Be mindful of cooking times and aim to keep the vegetables crisp-tender.
- Serve immediately: Stir-fries are best served immediately after cooking. Waiting too long can cause the vegetables to become soggy and the meat to dry out.

Notes
- Beef mince or any other beef steak cut into strips would work well in this recipe.
- Leftover cooked beef strips can be used in tacos, popped in a bread roll with salad or in a healthy wrap to make a burrito.
- Try swapping carrots for chargrilled corn, mash the avocado with a little diced red onion and chopped coriander for a guacamole, swap the sour cream for yoghurt.
Craving something more traditional? Try these alternatives:
- As a burrito: Instead of serving the ingredients in a bowl, wrap them in a tortilla to create a classic burrito. To do this, warm the tortilla in a dry pan, then fill it with the spinach, tomatoes, carrots, black beans, sizzle steak strips, and cheese. Roll up the burrito and serve with the avocado, coriander, sour cream, chilli sauce, and lime wedges on the side.
- As a quesadilla: Quesadillas are a delicious and easy way to use up leftovers. To make a quesadilla with this recipe, place a tortilla in a dry pan over medium heat. Sprinkle half the tortilla with cheese, then top with the sizzle steak strips and vegetables. Sprinkle more cheese on top, then fold the other half of the tortilla over the filling. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is crispy. Serve with avocado, coriander, sour cream, chilli sauce, and lime wedges on the side.

Ingredients:
- 4 sizzle steaks
- 1 cup plain flour
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 tsp paprika

- Mix the paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper with the breadcrumbs.
- Tenderise the sizzle steaks by pounding them with a meat mallet or rolling pin.
- Coat the sizzle steaks in the flour, shaking off any excess. Then, dip them in the egg and coat them in the seasoned breadcrumbs.

- Top each schnitzel with a slice of cheese and bake in the oven for 3-5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

- Once the schnitzels are done, place them on top of the salad ingredients on the bread rolls.
- Serve hot, and enjoy!
Schnitzels are super versatile – try serving your sizzle steaks with the following:
- With mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables: This is a classic side dish that goes perfectly with schnitzel. To make mashed potatoes, boil potatoes until tender, then mash them with butter and milk. For the steamed vegetables, you can use your favourite veggies, such as broccoli, carrots, or green beans.
- As a salad: If you want a lighter option, you can serve the schnitzel on a bed of greens with some fresh vegetables. You can use lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, and any other vegetables you like. Drizzle with a vinaigrette or dressing of your choice.
- In a wrap: To make a schnitzel wrap, warm a tortilla in a dry pan, then add some mayonnaise, sliced schnitzel, lettuce, and tomato. Roll up the tortilla and enjoy!
- With pasta: Schnitzel also goes well with pasta. You can serve it on top of your favourite pasta dish or make a simple tomato sauce by cooking canned tomatoes with garlic and olive oil and serve it with some cooked spaghetti or fettuccine.
Top tips for cooking perfect sizzle steaks
- Quality counts: Grass-fed beef is generally considered higher quality than conventionally raised beef, as it tends to be leaner, contain more nutrients, and have a richer flavour.
- Let the steak come to room temperature: Take the steak out of the fridge at least 30 minutes before cooking to let it come to room temperature. This will ensure that it cooks evenly.
- Preheat your cooking surface: They don’t call them minute steaks for nothing! Sizzle steaks cook quickly, so you want to make sure your pan or grill is hot before you start cooking. Preheat your cooking surface to medium-high or high heat.
- Season the steak: Season the steak with salt and pepper or your favourite steak seasoning. Don’t be afraid to use a lot of seasoning, as some of it will fall off during cooking.
- Cook the steak quickly: Sizzle steaks should be cooked quickly over high heat. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side for medium-rare or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C).
- Let the steak rest: Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute. This will make the steak more tender and juicier.
- Slice against the grain: When slicing the steak, cut it against the grain. This will help break up the muscle fibres and make the steak more tender.
- Serve immediately: Sizzle steaks are best served immediately after cooking. After you’ve made a quick beef recipe, enjoy it right away. Alternatively, keep things simple and serve with your favourite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a salad.
Remember, minute steaks are meant to be a quick and easy meal, so don’t overthink it. With these tips, you’ll have a delicious and satisfying steak in no time. Happy eating!
