CHICKEN FRIED RIB-EYE



Chicken Fried Rib-Eye image

Crunchy coating, delicious comfort food. Topped with creamy white gravy. A Texas delicacy. I first ate this at a restaurant in Texas.

Provided by LSU Tiger

Categories     Steak

Time 55m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 thin cut rib eye steaks (about 1/3-inch thick)
salt and pepper
2 cups flour
1 egg
2 tablespoons milk
cooking oil
1 1/2 cups warm milk

Steps:

  • Beat egg with 2 Tablespoons milk.
  • Salt and pepper all sides of meat.
  • Dredge in flour, dip in egg, then again in flour covering all the meat.
  • Let sit for 30 minutes so that the coating will stay on.
  • Fill a deep fry pot with oil and heat to 400 degrees.
  • Or if you don't have a thermometer, when the oil spits out of the pot when you drop a drop of water in the pot, it's ready.
  • I find that this is better than pan frying.
  • However, if you want to pan fry, heat about 1 inch of oil.
  • When the oil spits out of the pan when you drop a drop of water in the pan, it's ready.
  • Cook until golden brown, trying not to turn it but once, if pan frying.
  • Put in warming oven.
  • Pour out all but 2 Tablespoons of oil and add 2-3 Tablespoons of flour and make a roux.
  • Salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add 1 and 1/2 cups of warm milk.
  • Cook until smooth and thick.
  • Gravy is excellent to top off mashed potatoes as a side dish.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ribs: Baby back ribs or spare ribs are good choices for frying. Avoid country-style ribs, as they are too meaty and will not fry evenly.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: Marinate the ribs in a mixture of your favorite spices, herbs, and liquids for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will help the ribs develop flavor and stay moist during frying.
  • Dredge the ribs in flour: Before frying, dredge the ribs in a mixture of flour, salt, and pepper. This will help the ribs to brown evenly and create a crispy crust.
  • Fry the ribs in hot oil: Heat the oil to 350 degrees Fahrenheit before adding the ribs. Fry the ribs in batches until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 10 minutes per batch.
  • Drain the ribs on paper towels: After frying, drain the ribs on paper towels to remove excess oil.
  • Serve with your favorite dipping sauce: Chicken-fried ribs are traditionally served with barbecue sauce, but you can also serve them with ranch dressing, honey mustard, or your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Chicken-fried ribs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple tips, you can make chicken-fried ribs that are crispy, flavorful, and sure to please everyone at your table.
