Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Tenderize the beef steaks using a meat mallet until they are about 1/2 inch thick. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Set up Breading Station

    In a shallow dish, combine flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper. In another bowl, whisk together buttermilk and eggs.

  3. 3

    Bread the Steaks

    Dip each steak into the buttermilk mixture, allowing excess to drip off, then dredge in the seasoned flour, pressing down to ensure an even coating.

  4. 4

    Heat Oil

    In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.

  5. 5

    Fry the Steaks

    Carefully add the breaded steaks to the hot oil. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the Country Fried Steak hot, ideally with gravy, biscuits, or your favorite sides for a complete Southern breakfast.
