Equipment
- 1 frying pan
- 1 meat mallet
- 1 Mixing bowl
- 1 Whisk
Ingredients
- 4 pieces beef cube steaks about 1/2 pound each
- 1 cup all-purpose flour for dredging
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 2 cups milk for gravy
- 4 large eggs
- to taste salt and pepper
- as needed vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- Prepare Steaks: Tenderize the cube steaks with a meat mallet to about 1/4 inch thickness. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
- Dredge Steaks: Combine flour, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder in a mixing bowl. Dredge each steak in the flour mixture, shaking off excess.
- Fry Steaks: Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry each steak for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.
- Make Gravy: Pour off excess oil, leaving about 2 tablespoons in the pan. Whisk in 2 tablespoons of the leftover seasoned flour. Gradually add milk, whisking continuously until smooth and thickened.
- Cook Eggs: In the same pan or a separate pan, fry eggs to your liking, preferably sunny side up.
- Serve: Plate each steak topped with gravy and a fried egg on the side. Serve immediately.
