Fry the Steak
In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded steaks to the skillet. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
Making the Gravy
- 5
Prepare the Gravy
In the same skillet used for frying, reduce heat to medium and add butter. Once melted, whisk in the all-purpose flour until golden brown. Gradually add milk while whisking to avoid lumps. Bring to a simmer and season with salt and black pepper. Cook until thickened, about 5-7 minutes.
