Country Fried Steak:
- 6 Cubed Steaks (AKA Minute Steaks)
- Salt and pepper
Seasoned
Flour:
- 1 1/2 cup flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon season salt
- 1 teaspoon fresh cracked pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- Combine and place in a large
shallow dish (like a pie plate)
Egg Mixture:
- 4 eggs
- 1/4 cup milk (preferably whole milk)
- Salt and pepper
- Combined in a shallow
dish or bowl.
What to do:
In a large skillet preheat approximately 2" of oil, lard or
vegetable shortening to 350 degrees.
To prepare the
steaks:
- Season both sides with salt and pepper. Its important to season these steaks every step of the way. The meat does not come already seasoned so this step is important to bring out the flavor.
- Dredge the steaks in the flour mixture coating it on both sides.
- To properly prepare each steak, take the floured steak and dredge in the egg mixture. Shake off excess and place back into the flour mixture, then back into the egg, and back into the flour. (initial flouring, egg, flour, egg, flour, fry it!).
- You will "double dip" each steak and fry each steak approximately 2-4 minutes on the first side, 1-2 minutes on the second side. I judge turning time by when I see red droplets on the top side of the steak, this may vary depending on how large your steaks are.
- Flip it over and allow it just to briefly cook on the other side. Remove from the oil and place on a paper bag or a dish lined with paper towels.
Serve with potatoes and gravy...yummm. I used brown gravy and made my yummy Baked "Mashed" Potatoes
ENJOY!
