3. Coat each steak in flour, shake off the excess, dip in egg, then press firmly into the breadcrumbs so the coating sticks evenly.
4. Heat the oil in a wide skillet over medium heat until hot but not smoking.
5. Fry the milanesas in batches until deep golden on both sides, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
6. Drain on paper towels and season lightly with salt.
