  1. I was looking for a recipe to use up some tough round steak,and also a recipe for my SO's B-Day dinner. So, when I came across this recipe I figured it would work for both of my " needs ". And I have to say it did :). Since there was just the two of us,this is how the recipe was made: I used two 4 ounce pieces of round steak which were pounded thin. Then 1 egg was beaten with about 1/4 cup of milk.The flour and seasonings were adjusted as follows: 1 cup of flour,1/2 tablespoon seasoned salt,2 teaspoons garlic powder, 1 1/2 teaspoon chili powder,and1 1/2 teaspoons onion powder. For the celery salt, 1/2 teaspoon of ground celery powder was used. And instead of adding the chicken bouillon cube, I used a teaspoon of chicken bouillon powder. Speaking of the bouillon, I read the recipe wrong and added it to the flour and the rest of the seasonings. But it was an unexpected surprise, it really gave the coating a really great flavor, so I think that I'll read it " wrong " again. :). I served this with mashed potatoes & green beans. Thank you for posting a recipe that will be made again. " Keep Smiling :) "
     
  2. Was very good just had a different taste than what I am used to. Also, the cube steak is VERY hard to work with...you dip it and it falls right apart. Will try again tho just to make sure it wasn't error on my part.
     
  3. Very good recipe however next time I will use less seasoned salt. It was really salty!! I also made 8 steaks instead of 6. Thanks for the recipe!
