Italian Beef Florentine

Ingredients

1/4 cup flour
2 eggs (or 1/2 cup egg substitute)
1 1/2 cups panko (Japanese bread crumbs)
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 beef chuck patties (1 lb)
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 packet garlic and herb sauce mix (about 1.5 oz)
1 1/2 cups reduced-fat milk
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cups baby spinach leaves (about 3 oz)

Steps

  1. Place flour on plate (may be paper). Beat eggs gently, in a shallow bowl, until blended. Combine in second shallow bowl, bread crumbs, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  2. Preheat large sauté pan on medium-high 2–3 minutes. Dip patties in flour (coating both sides) then dip into egg mixture (allowing excess to drip off). Finally, dip into bread crumb mixture.
  3. Place oil in pan; swirl to coat. Add patties to pan (wash hands); cook 2–3 minutes on each side to brown.
  4. Reduce heat to medium; cook 2–3 more minutes on each side or until internal temperature reaches 160°F. Use a meat thermometer to accurately ensure doneness.
  5. Meanwhile, combine sauce mix and milk in medium saucepan. Bring to a boil on medium-high.
  6. Reduce heat on sauce to low; stir in butter and spinach. Cook 2–3 minutes, stirring often, or until spinach is wilted. Serve sauce over patties.
