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.
  • Enjoy!

HOW TO MAKE COUNTRY GRAVY



How to Make Country Gravy image

This is a beautiful example of classic, very old-school American country cooking. There are a lot of variations, and this is my favorite. This goes on fried chicken, country-fried steak, and biscuits.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Side Dish     Sauces and Condiments Recipes     Gravy Recipes     Pork Gravy

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons butter
8 ounces breakfast sausage links, casings removed and meat broken up
4 strips bacon, sliced crosswise
½ cup chopped green onions (light parts only)
⅓ cup packed all-purpose flour
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 ½ cups cold milk
1 tablespoon chopped green onion
1 pinch cayenne pepper for garnish

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a large skillet or saucepan over medium heat; cook sausage and bacon in the hot butter, stirring to break the sausage up into small pieces, until sausage is browned and bacon is almost crisp, about 10 minutes. Mix 1/2 cup green onion into sausage mixture and saute until onions are soft, about 3 more minutes.
  • Stir flour into meat mixture, 1 to 2 tablespoons at a time, until thoroughly combined and mixture is pasty. Cook, stirring often, 2 to 3 minutes to remove raw taste of flour.
  • Whisk milk into meat mixture, about 1 cup at a time, until combined. Continue to whisk until gravy begins to thicken, about 5 minutes. Turn heat to medium-high, bring gravy to a simmer, and season with a pinch of cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Reduce heat to medium-low.
  • Continue to simmer gravy until flavors have blended and gravy is thick, 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon green onion and a pinch of cayenne pepper for garnish.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Thick-cut bacon, fresh vegetables, and flavorful sausage will make a big difference in the final dish.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the seasonings to your liking. Add more pepper or cayenne pepper for a spicier gravy, or more salt and garlic powder for a more savory flavor.
  • Cook the gravy over low heat to prevent it from burning. A slow simmer will allow the flavors to develop and deepen.
  • If the gravy is too thick, add a little milk or water to thin it out. If it's too thin, simmer it for a few minutes longer to reduce it.
  • Serve the gravy immediately over your favorite dishes, such as biscuits, mashed potatoes, or chicken fried steak.

Conclusion:

Peppered country gravy is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a flavorful gravy that will be a hit with your family and friends.
