COUNTRY FRIED STEAK AND GRAVY RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 225˚F (110˚C).
• Set a steak in the center of a cutting board and cover with a piece of plastic wrap. Using a meat mallet, pound the steak evenly to ¼-inch (½ cm) thick. Season with salt and pepper on both sides. Repeat with the remaining meat.
• In a wide, shallow dish, whisk together the eggs and 1 cup (240 ml) of milk. In a separate shallow dish, mix together the 1 ½ cups (190 g) of flour, pepper, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
• Dredge the steaks in the flour mixture, then dip in the egg mixture, letting any excess egg drip off. Coat again in the flour mixture. Set aside for 10-15 minutes, until the coating has dried out a bit.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in a 10-inch (25.5 cm) pan over medium-high heat until it reaches 375˚F (190˚C).
• Fry the steaks, 2 at a time, for 3 minutes, until golden brown and crispy. Flip and cook on the other side for 3 minutes more, until golden brown and cooked through when the internal temperature reaches 155˚-165˚F (170˚-175˚C). Transfer the steaks to a paper towel-lined plate or baking sheet and immediately season with salt. Once all of the steaks are done frying, transfer to the oven while you prepare the gravy.
• Pour the hot oil into a heatproof bowl and let cool before discarding. 9. Leave any browned bits in the pan.
• In the same pan, without wiping it out, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons of flour, whisking to incorporate. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the roux is a light brown color. Add the heavy cream and remaining milk. Bring to a simmer and cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Ladle the gravy over the steaks and serve with your favorite side dishes.

PIONEER WOMAN COUNTRY FRIED STEAK

Steps:

• Arrange three bowls in a line. In the first, mix the milk with the eggs. In the second, mix the flour with the seasoned salt, black pepper, paprika and cayenne. Place the steak in the last bowl. At the end of the line, place a clean plate, ready for the breaded steak. Take the first steak and sprinkle both sides with kosher salt and pepper. Coat it in the flour mixture, then place in the milk/egg mixture, coating thoroughly. Finally, place it back into the flour mixture and turn it, making sure it is well coated. Place on the clean plate, then repeat with the other steaks. Heat the oil and butter over a medium heat in a large skillet. Test by dropping in a few sprinkles of flour, which will sizzle when the oil is hot enough. When the oil is ready, add 3 pieces of the steak at a time and cook until the edges start to look golden. This will take around 2 minutes each side. Place the meat on a plate lined with paper towels and keep warm whilst you cook the rest. Once all the steak is cooked, pour the grease from the pan into a heatproof bowl and return the skillet to the stove (don't clean it first). Set the heat to medium-low and return 1/4 cup of the grease back to the skillet. Once the grease is hot, sprinkle the flour for the gravy over it evenly. Whisk the flour into the grease, which will create a golden brown paste (roux). If it looks too greasy, add a little extra flour. If it seems too clumpy, add a little more grease. Once the roux is a deep, golden brown color, whisk in the milk. Add seasoned salt and black pepper to taste and cook until the gravy is thick and smooth, stirring constantly. This should take 5 to 10 minutes. If the gravy becomes too thick, add a little more milk. Serve the meat with mashed potato and top with the gravy.
