ITALIAN STEAK (serves 4)            Printable version

INGREDIENTS

2 Cups Hook to Cook Light & Crispy Coating

1Cup Hook to Cook Pre-Dip*

Water

1- 16oz. package of penne pasta, cooked as directed

2 jars of your favorite spaghetti sauce

1 pkg. shredded mozzarella cheese

4 strip steaks, about 8 oz. each

Cooking oil

300 degree preheated oven 

METHOD

Place and heat the spaghetti sauce in medium pan. 

Put ½ cup Pre-Dip in medium size paper bag. Add the steaks and shake to coat.  Shake off excess Pre-dip. Place on plate. 

In shallow dish, mix Pre-Dip with water using a whisk until smooth.   Coat each steak with Pre-dip, making sure all dry surfaces are coated. 

In another medium size bowl add the Hook to Cook Light & Crispy Coating and coat each steak evenly.   

When all are coated, heat oil to 350° and fry until golden brown.  

Mix the cooked pasta with all but 1cup of the spaghetti sauce and place in a baking dish.  Place the steaks on the pasta and top each steak with the reserved spaghetti sauce and the mozzarella cheese. 

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes.  Serve with warm garlic bread.

*Hook to Cook Pre-Dip when mixed as directed makes a superior adhesion batter forming an intermediate binding layer that produces a healthier entrée by preventing oil/fat absorption.  Pre-Dip also seals in juices/moisture and nutrients, increases adhesion, crispness and prevents blow off during frying.  Pre-Dip will also help food stay crisp longer when kept warm or on the table, and with its superb blend of flour and spice will enhance the flavors of any additional coatings giving you the results of a professional chef.  Pre-Dip is highly recommended to be used with all Hook to Cook Premium Coatings.
