Italian Beef Florentine - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/4 cup flour
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups panko breadcrumbs
2 teaspoons italian seasoning
1/8 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
4 beef chuck, patties (about one pound)
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 ounces garlic and herb sauce mix (1 packet, such as Knorr brand)
1 1/2 cups milk
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cups baby spinach leaves (prepackaged)

Preparation

Place flour on a plate. Beat eggs gently, in a shallow bowl, until blended. In another shallow bowl, mix Panko bread crumbs, Italian seasoning, onion powder, salt and pepper.
Preheat large saute pan on medium-high 2-3 minutes. Dip patties in flour (coating both sides), then dip in egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off. Finally, dip into Panko bread crumb mixture.
Place oil in pan; swirl to coat. Add patties to pan and cook 2-3 minutes on each side to brown.
Reduce heat to medium; cook 2-3 more minutes on each side, until cooked through.
Meanwhile, combine sauce mix and milk in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil on medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low; stir in butter and spinach. Cook 2-3 minutes, stirring often, or until spinach is wilted. Serve sauce over patties.
