minute steak

Thin pounded cutlet

Minute steak is a thin cut of beef, often tenderized by pounding or scoring, that cooks quickly—in about a minute.

The name refers to cooking time, not size.

It's typically pan-fried and served as an inexpensive weeknight meal: She made minute steaks with onions and gravy.
