A comforting classic featuring crispy fried steak smothered in rich, creamy gravy, perfect for family dinners and cozy nights in.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 tenderized beef steaks (sirloin or round)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- Oil for frying (canola or vegetable)
- 2 cups milk
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (for gravy)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Mix together the flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder in a shallow dish.
- Dredge each steak in the flour mixture, coating them evenly and shaking off excess flour.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
- Carefully place the steaks into the hot oil, frying for about 3-4 minutes per side until golden-brown and cooked to your desired doneness.
- Remove the steaks from the skillet and keep warm on a plate covered with foil.
- Add butter to the skillet and allow it to melt over medium heat.
- Whisk in 2 tablespoons of flour, stirring constantly for about 1 minute.
- Gradually pour in the milk while continually whisking to avoid lumps.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook until it thickens, stirring frequently.
- Season the gravy with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the fried steaks generously topped with the creamy gravy.
Notes
Consider marinating the steak overnight for deeper flavor infusion. For a healthier twist, try using an air fryer.
