Ingredients:
1 c vegetable oil
1 ½ c buttermilk
4 cube steaks (about 1/3 pound each)
2 tsp TABASCO® Sauce (original)
½ tsp baking powder
1 ½ c all-purpose flour
½ tsp baking soda
2 Eggs
½ tsp onion powder
½ tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp garlic powder
2 tsp fresh ground black pepper, divided
2 tsp kosher salt or sea salt, divided
Chicken Fried Steak Gravy
4 tbsp flour
2 to 3 c of whole milk
4 tbsp grease
salt and pepper to taste
½ c heavy whipping cream
Directions:
Add garlic powder, flour, baking powder, 1 tsp black pepper, baking soda, 1 tsp salt, onion powder, and paprika into a mixing bowl. Whisk everything until well incorporated.
Add Tabasco sauce, buttermilk, and eggs into another mixing bowl. Whisk everything until well combined.
Use paper towels to pat dry the steaks. Sprinkle salt and pepper to season. Let them rest for a few minutes, then use paper towels again to pat them dry.
Coat each steak with the flour mixture and egg mixture. Shake off any excess. Transfer them onto a sheet pan.
Prepare the oven and preheat it to 250 degrees F.
Place a heavy skillet on the stove and turn the heat to medium-high. Add vegetable oil and allow it to become hot.
Add 2 steaks into the hot skillet, then cook each side for about 3 minutes or until they turn golden brown. Transfer them onto a clean plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Repeat the process with the rest of the steaks. Place the steaks in the oven to keep them warm.
For the Gravy:
Leave about 4 tbsp of the oil from the skillet and place it on the stove over medium heat.
Add flour, then whisk and cook for about 3 minutes to remove the raw taste.
Add milk and cream, then whisk until well blended. Simmer for about 5 minutes or until the texture becomes smooth. Add more milk if needed. Sprinkle salt and pepper to season.
Serve the steak with the delicious gravy over mashed potatoes!
Notes:
Place any leftovers in an airtight container, then put them in the fridge. They can last up to 3 days. Reheat for a few minutes before serving again.
