An old time favorite. Ingredients:
1 lb boneless beef top round steak, cut 1/2 inch thick |
1/2 cup buttermilk or 1/2 cup sour milk |
1 egg, beaten |
1/2 cup all-purpose flour |
2 tablespoons cooking oil |
3 tablespoons butter |
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder |
2 1/4 cups milk |
1 1/2 teaspoons instant chicken bouillon granules |
Directions:
1. Trim fat from meat; cut meat into 4 portions. Place between pieces of plastic wrap. Pound to 1/4-inch thickness. In a shallow dish, combine buttermilk and egg. In another dish, mix the 1/2 cup flour with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Dip meat into egg; coat with flour mixture. 2. In a 12-inch skillet, heat 2 tablespoons hot oil over medium heat. Cook cutlets for about 8 minutes or until coating is golden and meat no longer is pink, turning once. 3. For gravy: In a saucepan, melt butter. Stir in the 3 tablespoons flour and the garlic. Add 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Combine milk and bouillon. Stir in milk mixture all at once. Cook and stir until bubbly. Cook for 1 minute more. Serve with gravy. |
