It's no secret that steak and chop are two different meat dishes.

But what is the difference between them? The answer to this question was found by the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, chef Yulia Arkhipova .

Steak is typically prepared from large pieces of meat cut across the grain into portions.

This dish is typically prepared using a grill, frying pan, or even an oven, and is usually served with sauces or other accompaniments.

At the same time, chops are made using thin pieces of meat that are first beaten with a hammer to make them even thinner and then dipped in egg and breadcrumbs before frying.

The chop can also be served with a sauce of your choice. Meat prepared this way can be used as a separate dish or as an ingredient for sandwiches.

To summarize, the main difference between a steak and a chop is that a steak is prepared from a large piece of meat without any pre-treatment, whereas a chop is made from thinly sliced pieces of meat and is usually processed with a hammer.
