Ingredients

  • 4 pieces Beef sirloin steaks
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 1 cup Almond flour
  • 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 0.5 cup Coconut oil or olive oil for frying
  • 4 pieces Lemon wedges
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Place the beef sirloin steaks between two pieces of plastic wrap or parchment paper. Use a meat mallet or rolling pin to pound the steaks to about 1/4-inch thickness.

Step 2

Season both sides of the steaks with salt and black pepper.

Step 3

In a shallow dish, combine the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix until evenly combined.

Step 4

In another shallow dish, beat the eggs until smooth.

Step 5

Dip each steak into the beaten eggs, ensuring both sides are coated.

Step 6

Next, coat the egg-dipped steaks with the almond flour mixture, pressing it onto the steak to ensure it sticks. Set aside the crumbed schnitzels on a plate.

Step 7

In a large skillet, heat the coconut oil or olive oil over medium-high heat.

Step 8

Once the oil is hot, carefully place the schnitzels into the skillet. Fry for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the coating is golden brown and the beef is cooked to your desired doneness.

Step 9

Remove the schnitzels from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Step 10

Serve the low carb crumbed beef schnitzels hot, garnished with fresh parsley and lemon wedges.
