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 :) "
