SICILIAN STEAK (BISTECCA ALLA SICILIANA)
I found this recipe in the "Authentic Italian Recipes Cookbook", compiled by The Christopher Columbus Ladies Auxiliary of San Antonio, Texas. My husband loves this steak! It's a nice change from the normal way we grill our steaks. I serve it with either Fettuccini Alfredo or baked potatoes.

Steps:
- 1. Slightly flatten meat with mallet. Put meat into a bowl, cover with salad oil. Add seasonings and marinate 45 minutes, turning meat periodically. 2. To make breading. Combine all breading ingredients. Remove meat from oil, dip into bread crumb mixture. Place on rack in broiler 5 inches from heat. Steaks must be turned often to avoid burning. When bread crumbs begin to soften meat is about med-rare, about 5 minutes. Cook longer if desired. Serve with pasta, tomato sauce and garlic bread.
SICILIAN STEAK
Got this while going through a bag of old recipes. The recipe didn't specify the size round steak, but I used a 1 lb steak and had extra breading, so I'd guess about 1 3/4-2lb would work with the bread crumb mix. The round steak came out nice and tender.

Steps:
- 1. In a medium skillet over moderately high heat, warm the oil. Season the tuna with salt and pepper and sauté, turning once, until golden on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes total. Remove the tuna and set aside. Do not clean the pan.
- 2. In the same pan over low heat, sauté the onion, stirring frequently, until just tender, about 1 minute. Add the garlic, capers, olives, raisins, and tomatoes, and continue cooking, stirring, until heated through, about 2 minutes. If the tomatoes don't release much juice, add the fish stock or water to give the sauce some body.
- 3. Return the tuna to the pan and cover it with a tight-fitting lid. Cook over moderate heat until the tuna reaches the desired doneness, 2 to 3 minutes for medium.
- 4. Add the parsley and basil and stir to incorporate, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve the fish with the sauce spooned over the top; garnish with pine nuts.
SICILIAN-STYLE BROCCOLI RABE
This is the way broccoli rabe was meant to be cooked. This goes great with a nice steak or fish. Serve with crusty Italian bread and some good vino. The best part is dipping the crusty bread in those juices. Buon appetito!
