I love this recipe, and so does my husband. Ingredients:
4 cube steaks (about 4 ounce each) |
1/2 cup all-purpose flour |
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper |
3/4 cup buttermilk |
1 cup finely crushed saltine crackers, about 25 crackers |
3 tablespoons vegetable shortening (like crisco) |
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup |
1 cup milk |
Directions:
1. If necessary, pound cubed steaks to 1/4-inch thickness between 2 sheets of plastic wrap, using a meat pounder or rolling pin. 2. Set aside. 3. Combine flour and pepper in a shallow dish. 4. Pour buttermilk into a second dish. 5. Spread crushed crackers on a plate. 6. Dredge steaks, one at a time, in seasoned flour. 7. Dip in buttermilk. 8. Then in crushed crackers, to coat thoroughly, pressing with fingertips to adhere. 9. Melt shortening in 12-inch skillet over medium heat. 10. Add steaks. 11. Cook 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through. 12. Remove to paper towel-lined platter and keep warm. 13. Stir mushroom soup and milk into drippings in skillet. 14.
