This country fried steak recipe was originally my grandmother's, but I thought it was really bland so I added seasoning to it. Serve it with country gravy and mashed potatoes.

COUNTRY FRIED STEAK WITH WHITE GRAVY

Provided by Emeril Lagasse

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 (1 3/4 to 2-pound) round steak, cut into 4 equal portions
2 1/2 cups milk, divided
3 tablespoons Essence, recipe follows, divided
1 cup fine dried bread crumbs
1/2 pound bacon, diced
Vegetable oil, for frying, if needed
1 1/2 cups bleached all-purpose flour
1/2 cup minced yellow onions
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Serving suggestion: Cheesy grits, optional
1 tablespoon black pepper
2 1/2 tablespoons paprika
1 tablespoon onion powder
2 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried thyme
2 tablespoons garlic powder

Steps:

  • Place the pieces of steak on a plastic wrap covered work surface and cover with another piece of plastic wrap. Pound the meat to a 1/4-inch thickness with a meat mallet. Season both sides of the meat with 1 1/2 teaspoons of the Essence.
  • Fry the bacon in a large skillet until just crisp, 6 to 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to paper towels to drain, leaving the fat in the pan. Set the pan aside.
  • Combine the flour with 1 tablespoon of the Essence in a large shallow bowl. Whisk the egg with 1/2 cup of the milk and 1 1/2 teaspoons of the Essence in another bowl. Combine the bread crumbs and the remaining 1 tablespoon Essence in another shallow bowl or baking dish.
  • Dredge the meat in the seasoned flour, then dip in the egg wash, letting the excess drip off. Dredge the meat in the seasoned bread crumbs, coating each side evenly. Shake off any excess bread crumbs. Reserve the seasoned flour.
  • Reheat the bacon fat in the skillet over high heat until very hot but not smoking. In batches, without crowding (you may only be able to cook 1 portion at a time), carefully add the meat and fry until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes on each side, adding a small amount of the vegetable oil, if necessary, for frying. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
  • Add 3 tablespoons of the reserved seasoned flour to the pan. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, for about 2 minutes, to make a light roux. Add the onions and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 4 minutes. Whisk in the remaining 2 cups milk, the salt, and pepper and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the sauce is thickened and there is no raw flour taste, about 5 minutes. Stir in the bacon.
  • Serve the steaks with the hot gravy and cheesy grits, if desired.
  • Combine all ingredients thoroughly.

Categories     Dinner

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 oz cube steak, 4 steaks, 8 oz (225 g) each
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt, plus more to taste
1 teaspoon black pepper, plus more to taste
2 large eggs
2 ¾ cups whole milk, divided
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, divided, plus 3 tablespoons
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
½ cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 225˚F (110˚C).
  • Set a steak in the center of a cutting board and cover with a piece of plastic wrap. Using a meat mallet, pound the steak evenly to ¼-inch (½ cm) thick. Season with salt and pepper on both sides. Repeat with the remaining meat.
  • In a wide, shallow dish, whisk together the eggs and 1 cup (240 ml) of milk. In a separate shallow dish, mix together the 1 ½ cups (190 g) of flour, pepper, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
  • Dredge the steaks in the flour mixture, then dip in the egg mixture, letting any excess egg drip off. Coat again in the flour mixture. Set aside for 10-15 minutes, until the coating has dried out a bit.
  • Meanwhile, heat the oil in a 10-inch (25.5 cm) pan over medium-high heat until it reaches 375˚F (190˚C).
  • Fry the steaks, 2 at a time, for 3 minutes, until golden brown and crispy. Flip and cook on the other side for 3 minutes more, until golden brown and cooked through when the internal temperature reaches 155˚-165˚F (170˚-175˚C). Transfer the steaks to a paper towel-lined plate or baking sheet and immediately season with salt. Once all of the steaks are done frying, transfer to the oven while you prepare the gravy.
  • Pour the hot oil into a heatproof bowl and let cool before discarding. 9. Leave any browned bits in the pan.
  • In the same pan, without wiping it out, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons of flour, whisking to incorporate. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the roux is a light brown color. Add the heavy cream and remaining milk. Bring to a simmer and cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Ladle the gravy over the steaks and serve with your favorite side dishes.

QUICK COUNTRY-FRIED STEAK



Quick Country-Fried Steak image

That delicious old-country taste right at home. Always a big hit. Whip up some mashed potatoes and even some peas and carrots and you've got a whole meal ready to go! Amount of left-over mixture depends on how evenly and how thoroughly you coat each steak. Tweaking and experimenting will be required to nail down a better proportion ratio so that there is less mix left over.

Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

⅔ cup milk
2 eggs
1 ½ cups crushed saltine crackers
¾ cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
¼ cup vegetable oil
6 (5 ounce) beef cube steaks
½ cup all-purpose flour
¼ cup minced onion
2 ¾ cups milk
¼ cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Beat 2/3 cup milk and eggs together in a bowl. Whisk crackers, 3/4 cup flour, and 1 teaspoon salt together in a shallow bowl.

Tips:

  • To make the perfect country-fried steak, use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet and cook the steaks over medium-high heat. This will create a nice, crispy crust on the outside while keeping the inside tender and juicy.
  • Tenderize the steak before cooking. This will help to break down the tough fibers and make the steak more tender. You can tenderize the steak by pounding it with a meat mallet or by marinating it in a mixture of buttermilk, eggs, and spices.
  • Use a flavorful breading mixture. The breading mixture is what gives the country-fried steak its distinctive flavor. A good breading mixture will include a combination of flour, cornmeal, bread crumbs, and spices.
  • Cook the steak until it is golden brown and crispy on the outside. This will ensure that the steak is cooked through and that it has a nice, crispy crust.
  • Serve the country-fried steak with your favorite sides. Mashed potatoes, gravy, and green beans are all classic sides that go well with country-fried steak.

Conclusion:

Country-fried steak is a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for a family meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a little practice, you can make a country-fried steak that is sure to impress your family and friends.
