Pound the beef steaks thin.
Crush the garlic and mix it with olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.
Rest the steaks in the garlic mixture for 20 minutes.
Heat the pan until very hot and cook the steaks for 90 seconds per side.
Transfer the steaks to a plate and foam the butter in the same pan for 1 minute.
Toast the cut sides of the buns in the buttery pan.
Place the steaks in the buns, add parsley, and drizzle over the remaining garlic pan juices.
Close the sandwiches hot and serve immediately.
💡 Tip: Pounding the steak thin keeps the prego sandwich tender in every bite.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve with fries, hot piri piri sauce, and pickles.
