Ingredients

• 1.5 lb Beef round steaks
• 2 cups Breadcrumbs
• 3 Eggs
• 1 cup Tomato sauce
• 8 oz Mozzarella
• 4 oz Ham
• 1 tsp Oregano
• 1 cup Vegetable oil

Steps

1. Bread and fry the milanesas exactly as for the classic — golden, crisp, drained on a rack.
2. Top each with a spoonful of tomato sauce, a slice of ham, and a generous blanket of mozzarella.
3. Bake at 425°F for 8 minutes until the cheese bubbles and browns in spots.
4. Dust with oregano and serve immediately; napolitana waits for no one.
5. Serve with a simple green salad and lemon; the richness begs for something sharp alongside.
