🇦🇷 Argentina recipe
Milanesa
The milanesa is Argentina's answer to the Wiener schnitzel, brought by Italian immigrants and elevated to a national staple. Thin cutlets of beef are tenderized, dredged in seasoned flour, dipped in egg, and coated in fine breadcrumbs before being pan-fried to a shatteringly crisp golden crust. Served simply with lemon wedges or topped with ham, cheese, and tomato sauce as a milanesa napolitana.
