Notes

Thinly Slicing Steak
Since getting those thin beef slices for our breaded steak can be tricky, here's an excellent way to make it easier! Place the steak in the freezer for about 20 minutes, then take it out and do your cuts. Leaving it in the freezer for that amount of time will let it firm up for easy slicing, but the steak won't be in there long enough to freeze.
