4 tenderized emu steaks

1/2 cup flour

1 tsp. Season salt or Cajun seasonings

1/3 cup emu egg (or 2 large chicken eggs)

2 Tbsp. Water

2 Tbsp. Chopped fresh herbs (parsley, basil and thyme)

1 cup fresh bread crumbs

1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Pat tenderized steaks dry, combine the flour and seasoning in a bowl to mix, then add tenderized steak to coat evenly.  Shake off excess, sprinkle with a little water then coat again in the seasoned flour. Beat the egg with the water in a shallow dish.  Stir in the herbs.  Dip the tenderized steaks into the egg mixture, turning to coat them evenly.  Combine the bread crumbs and grated Parmesan cheese on a plate, roll the tenderized steaks in the crumbs patting with your fingers to help to adhere.  Place emu tenderized steaks in a greased pan large enough to hold them in one layer. Bake until thoroughly cooked and golden, about 30 minutes.
