  • For the steak, look for a top round steak that is at least 1/4 inch thick and has been tenderized.
  • For the cheeses, select mozzarella and provolone that are thinly sliced, so they melt quickly.

  • Substitute the steak with a plant-based alternative, such as seitan, for a vegan-friendly option. The benefit of this substitution is that it provides a delicious, plant-based alternative that is both nutritious and flavorful.
  • Substitute the panko bread crumbs with almond meal for a gluten-free option. The benefit of this substitution is that it provides an alternative to bread crumbs, which is gluten-free and adds a nutty flavor to the dish.

Vegetarian Milanesa Sandwich Substitute the steak for a vegetarian alternative, such as a portobello mushroom, eggplant, or tofu. Follow the same steps for breading and frying, adjusting the cooking time as needed.
