Bitoque

(Prego, Portuguese Fried Steak)

Bitoque is a traditional dish which consists of a lean fried steak that is usually accompanied by fries, rice, and various salads. Most commonly it is enjoyed as the main course complemented with tomato or mustard sauce and topped with a crispy fried egg.


In the past, it was usually prepared with thin beef slices, but today pork varieties are equally popular. Bitoque is one of the most common lunch options for many Portuguese people and can be found on the menus of many traditional restaurants across the country.


The sandwich variety of bitoque goes under the name prego.
