Minute steak is sirloin steak that has been hammered with a mallet until it's thinner than normal. The action of hammering breaks up the muscle tissues in the meat which makes it more tender. Also, because the meat is thinner, it will now cook more quickly. (Typically one minute per side on a hot griddle).

Brian Turner, from Ready Steady Cook, has a simple but delicious recipe here:
