Beef Florentine
Ingredients
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs (or ½ cup egg substitute)
- 1 ½ cups panko bread crumbs
- 2 teaspoons dried oregano (or Italian seasoning)
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- 4 beef chuck patties (about 1 lb)

Steps

- Preheat large sauté pan on medium-high 2–3 minutes. Dip patties in flour, coating both sides. Dip into eggs; let excess drip off. Dredge in bread crumb mixture, pressing with fingertips to adhere (wash hands).
- Place oil in pan, then add patties; cook 2–3 minutes on each side to brown. Reduce heat to medium; cook 2–3 more minutes on each side until 160°F.
- Place Alfredo sauce in medium saucepan; bring to a simmer on medium. Reduce heat to low. Stir in spinach; cook and stir 2–3 minutes until spinach wilts. Serve sauce over patties.
