Steps:
- Place the beef roast into the freezer for several hours, until very firm and almost frozen. Slice the beef about 1/8 inch thick across the grain. You can also ask the butcher to slice it very thinly for you.

Mix all the crumb ingredients together until well combined. Dip each piece of beef into the egg mixture, then thoroughly coat with crumbs. Place the coated slices onto a sheet of foil on a baking sheet, and separate them with waxed paper as you dip and coat the beef.

BRAISED FLANK STEAK WITH LEMON AND GARLIC
This is one of my mother's best recipes from my childhood. Flank steak was cheap back then, so feel free to substitute chuck steak or flap meat. The ingredients are simple but very flavorful. It's excellent with buttered noodles or white beans, and a green vegetable such as broccoli or asparagus.

Steps:
- Trim fat from steak and cut steak into smaller portions (should get about 5 or 6 small steaks) Salt and Pepper the steak as heavily as you prefer, and roll in the flour.
- Preheat Butter at Med High heat.
- Cook steak on one side until seared and brown, then flip steak and sear on other side for just about a minute to seal in the juices.
- Turn heat down to low and add water.
- Cover and cook at low heat for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
- put meat on serving plate and mix gravy that is in the pan together and serve on mashed potatoes.
- Gravy should be thick enough but if desired add a little more flour to gravy and heat until gravy is as thick as desired.
- Quick note: I recommend using a non stick fry pan so as one reviewer mentioned you don't have trouble with the flour sticking to the pan.
Tips:
- Use a good quality cut of beef for the best results. Look for a steak that is tender and flavorful, such as a ribeye or strip steak.
- Make sure the steak is properly pounded before breading. This will help to tenderize the meat and ensure that it cooks evenly.
- Use a light touch when breading the steak. You don't want to coat the steak in too much breading, as this will make it heavy and greasy.
- Be careful not to overcrowd the pan when frying the steak. This will cause the steak to steam rather than fry, resulting in a soggy coating.
- Cook the steak over medium heat. This will help to prevent the steak from overcooking and becoming tough.
- Don't forget the lemon butter sauce! This sauce is the perfect complement to the crispy, flavorful steak.
Conclusion:
Breaded beef lemon steaks are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. With a crispy, flavorful coating and a tangy lemon butter sauce, these steaks are sure to be a hit with everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, give breaded beef lemon steaks a try.
