Ingredients
- 4 pieces beef sirloin steaks
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour
- 2 large eggs
- 0.5 cup coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 pieces fresh lemon wedges
Directions
Step 1
Place beef sirloin steaks between two sheets of parchment paper and use a meat mallet to pound them to about 1/4 inch thickness.
Step 2
In a shallow dish, combine almond flour, coconut flour, garlic powder, paprika, sea salt, and black pepper.
Step 3
In another shallow dish, beat the eggs until smooth using a fork or whisk.
Step 4
Dip each steak into the beaten eggs, ensuring it is completely covered, and then dredge it in the almond flour mixture. Press the flour coating onto the steak to ensure it sticks well.
Step 5
In a large skillet, heat coconut oil over medium-high heat. You want the oil to be shimmering but not smoking.
Step 6
Carefully place the coated beef steaks into the skillet. Avoid overcrowding; cook in batches if necessary.
Step 7
Cook each schnitzel for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 8
Once cooked, transfer the beef schnitzels to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
Step 9
Serve the Paleo Beef Schnitzels hot with fresh lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the schnitzel.
