TORTA DE MILANESA DE POLLO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
• Seal chicken breast in a resealable zip-top plastic bag. Pound flat to 1/4-inch thickness. Add cornstarch and shake to coat.
• Whisk egg in a shallow bowl. Dredge the chicken breast through the egg; leave it in the bowl. Add bread crumbs, cilantro, chipotle, oregano, cumin, and pepper to the bag; shake well. Lift chicken from the bowl, letting any excess egg drip off. Add to the bread crumb mixture. Shake and press the seasoned bread crumbs over the chicken breast.
• Place bolillo buns in the preheated oven until warmed through and toasted, about 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix mayonnaise and hot sauce together in a small mixing bowl.
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken until browned, about 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Cut the chicken in half lengthwise.
• Assemble the sandwiches. Spread the spicy mayonnaise over both sides of the rolls. Add equal amounts of avocado, tomato, lettuce, carrots, and jalapenos to 2 halves. Add chicken and the tops of the rolls. Serve with the remaining spicy mayonnaise for dipping.

STEAK MILANESA TORTA

Steps:

• Heat the canola oil in a large skillet.
• Sprinkle the steaks with salt and pepper. Add the flour to a shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl, lightly beat the eggs. In another shallow bowl, add the panko. Lightly coat both sides of the steaks in the flour, then egg, then panko.
• Pan fry 2 steaks at a time until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Remove the steak from the skillet and onto a paper-towel-lined-plate. Repeat with the remaining 2 steaks. Sprinkle the fried steaks with salt. In a small bowl, add the sour cream, lime zest, lime juice and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Cut the rolls in half lengthwise and spread one side with the sour cream mixture. Lay the steaks on each roll and top with the lettuce, Roasted Salsa, jalapenos and avocados. Blast Spanish radio station and enjoy.
• Position a rack on the top of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. In a large bowl, combine 3 tablespoons of the olive oil, the tomatoes, garlic, jalapeno, onions and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the vegetables on a baking sheet and roast until soft, 20 to 25 minutes. Add the roasted vegetables to a food processor with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, the cilantro, vinegar, sugar and lime juice. Pulse until chunky. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

TORTA MILANESA

Steps:

• Sprinkle the cutlets with salt and pepper all over. Put the flour on a plate and season with salt and pepper. Put the breadcrumbs in a second plate and the beaten eggs in a shallow bowl. Dip the cutlets into the flour, then the eggs and finally into the breadcrumbs, pressing down on both sides so that the breadcrumbs adhere to the meat.
• Heat enough oil in a large skillet to come 1/3-inch up the sides of pan until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil reaches 350 degrees F. Working in two batches, pan-fry the cutlets until golden, about 2 minutes per side. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to some paper towels to drain.
• To assemble the sandwiches, halve the rolls horizontally. Pull out the soft center of the bread slices and discard. Place the cutlets on the bottom halves of the rolls and top with mayonnaise if using, the lettuce, tomato, avocado, onion and jalapeno. Arrange the sandwiches on serving plates and garnish with lime wedges.

MEXICAN TORTAS DE MILANESA

Steps:

• Dredge steaks in egg and breadcrumbs, set aside.
• Heat about 1/4 inch oil in a large non-stick skillet to medium heat.
• Test temp of oil by sprinkling some breadcrumbs into oil.
• If they do nothing the oil is too cold, if they burn the oil is too hot, if they sizzle but don't burn it's ready.
• Fry steaks a few at a time about 3 minutes or so on each side (just until they are golden brown).
• Put steaks in a warm oven to keep warm while you continue with the next steps.
• In a small skillet brown chorizo until cooked through, about 5-6 minutes; drain on paper towel and set aside.
• To assemble sandwiches: you might want to heat bread in a warm oven, but every time I do this step the bread is still cold by the time I am done assembling so I have started to skip this step.
• If using French bread, half or other wise cut loaf to the size you want for your sandwiches.
• Then split the bread (or sub buns) down the center and scoop out excess bread.
• To each sandwich you will do the following: to the top half spread liberally with sour cream; sprinkle with crumbled queso fresco.
• Set aside.
• To the bottom half spread with refried beans (I just spread it straight from the can with a butter knife).
• Sprinkle with 1/4 of the chorizo.
• Put 1-2 steaks (depending on the size of your steaks) on top of chorizo in one layer.
• Top with shredded lettuce.
• Then add the sliced tomato.
• Followed by the avocado slices.
• Then the onions.
• Add the sandwich top and open really wide!
