Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb beef round steak (top round or sirloin)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (plus extra for the gravy)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup vegetable oil (for frying)
  • 4 tbsp butter (for gravy)
  • 2 cups beef broth

Instructions

  1. Tenderize the beef steak to about half an inch thick, seasoning both sides well with salt and pepper.
  2. Set up a breading station: whisk together eggs and milk in one bowl; combine flour, salt, and pepper in another.
  3. Dip each seasoned steak into the egg mixture first, allowing excess to drip off before coating fully in flour.
  4. Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering at about 350°F. Fry each steak for approximately 3 minutes per side until golden brown.
  5. For the gravy, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat, whisk in flour until golden brown. Gradually incorporate beef broth while stirring until thickened to your liking.
  6. Serve Chicken Fried Steak topped with gravy alongside preferred sides.
