Country Fried Steak Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Tenderize the beef round steak with a meat mallet until it's about 1/2 inch thick. Season both sides with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Breading Station

    In one bowl, combine flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. In another bowl, whisk together milk and eggs.

  3. 3

    Bread the Steak

    Dredge each piece of steak in the flour mixture, then dip into the egg mixture, and finally coat again in the flour mixture.

  4. 4

    Fry the Steak

    In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Fry the breaded steaks for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.

  5. 5

    Drain

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

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve hot, optionally topped with gravy.
