Chicken Fried Steak
Ingredients:
• For the Steak:
• 4 cube steaks (about 1/2 inch thick)
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1 cup milk
• 1 large egg
• Oil for frying
• For the Gravy:
• 1/4 cup cooking drippings
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 cups milk
• Salt and black pepper to taste
Directions:
1. Prepare the Steaks:
• Mix together flour, black pepper, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika in a bowl. In another bowl, whisk together the milk and egg.
• Dip each steak into the milk mixture, then dredge in the flour mixture, pressing to coat. Dip the steaks back into the milk mixture and coat again with flour.
2. Cook the Steaks:
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the steaks until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove steaks from the skillet and drain on paper towels.
3. Make the Gravy:
• Pour off all but 1/4 cup of the cooking drippings from the skillet. Whisk in the flour until smooth, then gradually stir in the milk.
• Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until thickened, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
4. Serve:
• Serve the steaks hot, topped with the creamy white gravy.
