Tender and Beefy Chicken-Fried Steak
Chicken-fried steak, at its worst, is an overcooked slab of tough beef coated in a greasy deep-fried coating made soggy by a gluey bland gravy.
Ingredients
- 1 cube steak
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 3 tablespoons milk
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
- Salt and pepper to taste
Directions
For the Steaks: Pat steaks dry with paper towels. Place one steak in a resealable plastic bag. Using a meat pounder, rolling pin, or small skillet, pound steak out to an even 1/8- to 1/4-inch thickness. Repeat with remaining 3 steaks. Season steaks with salt.
