Ingredients

• 1 egg
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 (4 ounce) packet saltine crackers, crushed
• 4 (4 ounce) cube steaks
• 0.25 cup milk
• 1.5 teaspoons garlic powder
• 1.5 teaspoons onion powder
• 1.5 teaspoons seasoned salt
• 1.5 teaspoons Montreal steak seasoning

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Whisk milk and egg together in a shallow bowl; set aside. Whisk flour, crushed saltines, seasoned salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and steak seasoning together in a separate shallow bowl; set aside.

Step 2

Dip 1 steak into egg mixture. Lift up so excess mixture drips back into the bowl. Press into flour mixture, patting into steak to coat completely. Place coated steak, unstacked onto a plate. Repeat with remaining 3 steaks.

Step 3

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully add steaks; fry until golden brown, firm, hot in the center, and just turning from pink to grey, about 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into centers should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
