Pan Fried Cube Steak Pan Gravy
4 pieces Cubed Steak (thawed) 1/3 Cup oil from frying steak
Season Salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder 1/4 Cup flour (to start)
1 Cup Flour 2 -3 Cups of milk
Cooking Oil or Shortening Salt and pepper to taste
INSTRUCTIONS:
Heat oil over medium heat in frying pan while you season steaks. Coat steaks (both sides) with flour on butcher paper that was included or in a separate bowl. Place the steaks in the hot oil to fry. Do not flip until the sides of the steak look brown. Try to maintain a steady cooking heat (do not cook on High temp you want to cook longer to achieve tenderness). Cook to golden brown. Remove steaks from pan and place in oven at 325 degrees to maintain crisp outside coating while you make the pan gravy. Sprinkle flour over fried drippings in the pan and stir enough to incorporate the flour with the grease slowly add milk while stirring. Stir gently until thickened to desired consistency. You can make a roux with flour and water or milk to help thicken or to thin a gravy just add a little more milk. Salt and Pepper to taste. Enjoy with mashed potatoes or salt water potatoes and don’t forget a green vegetable to round out the meal! Enjoy! Amy Effing, Well Done Beef
