Gravy (optional)

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cubed Steak

    Pat the cubed steaks dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This will help the breading adhere better.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Sprinkle the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder evenly over both sides of the cubed steak.

Breading Process

  1. 3

    Set up Breading Station

    In one bowl, place the all-purpose flour. In a second bowl, beat the eggs with the milk until well combined.

  2. 4

    Bread the Steak

    Coat each seasoned cubed steak first in the flour, then dip it into the egg mixture, and finally back into the flour to create a crispy coating.

Cooking

  1. 5

    Heat the Oil

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

  2. 6

    Fry the Steak

    Carefully place the breaded cubed steaks into the hot oil. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.

  3. 7

    Drain the Steak

    Remove the cooked steaks from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Gravy (Optional)

  1. 8

    Prepare the Gravy

    In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium. Pour in the beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.

  2. 9

    Thicken the Gravy

    In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water to create a slurry, then add it to the skillet. Stir until the gravy thickens, about 3-5 minutes.
