Chicken-Fried Steak & Gravy

TOTAL TIME: Prep/Total Time: 30 min. YIELD: 4 servings.
As a child, I learned from my grandmother how to make these chicken-fried steaks. I taught my daughters, and when my granddaughters are older, I’ll show them, too. —Donna Cater, Fort Ann, New York

Ingredients

  • 1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour, divided
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1-1/2 cups 2% milk, divided
  • 4 beef cubed steaks (6 ounces each)
  • 1-1/4 teaspoons salt, divided
  • 1 teaspoon pepper, divided
  • Oil for frying
  • 1 cup water

Directions

  • 1. Place 1 cup flour in a shallow bowl. In a separate shallow bowl, whisk eggs and 1/2 cup milk until blended. Sprinkle steaks with 3/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Dip in flour to coat both sides; shake off excess. Dip in egg mixture, then again in flour.
  • 2. In a large cast-iron or other heavy skillet, heat 1/4 in. oil over medium heat. Add steaks; cook until golden brown and a thermometer reads 160°, 4-6 minutes on each side. Remove from pan; drain on paper towels. Keep warm.
  • 3. Remove all but 2 tablespoons oil from pan. Stir in the remaining 1/4 cup flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper until smooth; cook and stir over medium heat until golden brown, 3-4 minutes. Gradually whisk in water and remaining 1 cup milk. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir until thickened, 1-2 minutes. Serve with steaks.
