Prep/Total Time: 25 min.

Yield: 4 Servings

20 5 25

Ingredients

1 egg
1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 beef top sirloin steak (1 pound)
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 cup pizza sauce
1/4 cup shredded Italian cheese blend

Directions

In a shallow bowl, whisk egg. In another shallow bowl, combine the bread crumbs, basil, oregano, salt and pepper. Cut steak into four pieces; dip each piece in egg, then coat with bread crumb mixture.
In a large skillet, cook steaks in oil over medium-high heat for 2-4 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 145°; medium, 160°; well-done, 170°).
Meanwhile, heat sauce in a small saucepan. Spoon over steaks; sprinkle with cheese. Yield: 4 servings.
