Crumbed Avocado Steak

Ingredients

• 4 Scotch fillets (chuck eye)
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• Salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 2 eggs
• 3 cups fresh bread crumbs
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
• 1/4 cup butter
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 avocado – peeled, pitted and sliced
• Mustard Sauce
• 3 egg yolks
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
• 1/2 cup butter, diced and softened

Directions

Pound the steaks out to 1/2 inch thickness.

Coat steaks lightly with flour seasoned with salt and pepper. Dip steaks into lightly-beaten eggs, then coat with combined breadcrumbs and parsley, pressing on firmly. Place steaks on to tray, and refrigerate until ready to cook.

In a large frying pan, heat 1/4 cup butter and oil over medium-high heat. Cook steaks until golden brown, and cooked to desired doneness. Remove from pan, and keep warm.

In a metal bowl, whisk together egg yolks, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and mustard. Place the bowl over simmering water, and stir until sauce is thick and creamy. Whisk in the remaining 1/2 cup softened butter, and remove from heat.

Place steaks onto serving plates, place two slices of avocado on each steak, and spoon the Mustard Sauce over each one.
