Instructions
- Steak: In a bowl whisk together the eggs, milk, hot sauce, salt, and pepper until combined.
- In a separate bowl whisk together the flour, corn starch, paprika, onion granules, garlic granules, pepper, and 1 ½ teaspoons of sea salt until combined.
- Next, add 1 cube steak to the bowl with the whisked eggs and milk and completely coat.
- Transfer the egg-washed steak to the bowl with seasoned flour and dredge to completely coat on each side. Place on a cookie sheet tray lined with parchment paper and repeat until all of the steaks have been breaded.
- Add the breaded steak 2 or 3 at a time to a large frying pan over medium to medium-high heat, or at 350°, and cook for 1 ½ to 2 ½ minutes per side or until browned and cooked through.
- Drain on paper towels or a cookie sheet tray with a rack. Repeat the process until all of the steaks have been cooked.
- Gravy: In a medium-size saucepot over low heat add in the butter until melted and then whisk in the flour until completely combined.
- Pour in the milk while constantly whisking and turn the heat to medium-high until nappe, or very thick.
- Finish the gravy with salt and pepper and serve with the chicken fried steak.
- Serve with optional garnishes of chopped green onions and parsley.
Notes
- Chef Notes:
- Make-Ahead: This recipe is meant to be eaten as soon as it is finished cooking.
- How to Reheat: To reheat the steak, place it on a rack on a cookie sheet tray and bake at 350° for 4-5 minutes or until crisp and warm. If reheating the steak from the freeze, bake on a cookie sheet tray lined with parchment paper at 350° for 12-15 minutes. Heat the gravy in a small saucepot over low heat until warmed. You can also heat both of these in a microwave until warm.
- How to Store: Cover and keep in the refrigerator for 3 days. This will freeze covered for up to 2 months. Go straight from the freezer to the oven when reheating.
- Watch the video if you want to make cube steak at home.
- There will be plenty of gravy leftover.
- You can make the gravy with leftover oil instead of butter from the frying pan, but your meat can get soggy sitting while waiting.
