Protein-packed, flavorful, and filling, pork center butterflied steaks are a favorite comfort food in many households. You can use them in a range of delicious recipes, and they have a low fat content compared to beef. The nutritional content for a 3.5 ounce butterflied pork steak is:

Pork center butterflied steaks are obtained from thick, boneless chops cut from the center of pig loins. By cutting horizontally halfway down the center of these chops, you can get double-flap cuts that you can open like a book and flatten down to form a butterfly-like shape. The thickness of pork center butterflied steaks ranges from three-quarters of an inch to two inches. Before cooking them, remember to trim off any excess fat.

You can add flavor to the pork center butterflied steaks by marinating them in a mix of lemon juice, oil, salt, pepper, and your favorite seasonings. Afterward, dry any excess marinade with paper towels, and let the steaks sit on the counter for about 30 minutes to come to room temperature. Then you will be able to cook them evenly, and the steaks will stay juicy and tender. You can also coat them with flour that has been mixed with seasonings, beaten eggs, and bread crumbs before frying them for a crispy and flavorful treat.

It is important not to overcook the pork center butterflied steaks as they tend to dry out quickly. Because they are relatively lean, it can take as little as four to ten minutes to fry, roast, or grill them over medium heat. Turn them over every couple of minutes so that they cook evenly on both sides, and you will know they are done when they turn golden. For even juicier steaks, sear them in a pan until a crust forms and seals the juices inside, place them in a baking dish with chicken or vegetable stock, and then place them in the oven. After removing them, let them rest for about 10 minutes before serving.

If you prefer a broiled steak dish, you can broil the pork center butterflied steaks at 500 degrees Fahrenheit. Flip them over halfway through cooking and allow them to rest for around three minutes before you serve them. 

Pork center butterflied steaks also taste great when cooked in butter and simmered in a thickened gravy made using cornstarch and apple juice. Add salt, pepper, and sage to improve the flavor. You can also add sliced green onions, sweet potatoes, and tart apples to the gravy while cooking. Let the gravy come to a boil, and serve the dish hot. It will go well with rice or bread.

You can stuff the steaks with sauteed vegetables, roasted nuts, mushrooms, butter, cheese, or your favorite meat stuffing for stuffed pork steak dishes. Fry them in a small amount of oil until or bake them at around 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 45 minutes.

You can serve the steaks hot with rice or pasta, or you can let them cool down and then braise them for 45 to 55 minutes on low heat in savory gravy or a sauce with chopped potatoes, onions, peppers, tomatoes, or tart apples.
