Instructions

  1. Season the cube steak pieces with salt and black pepper. In one dish, whisk eggs with buttermilk. In another, combine all-purpose flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  2. Dip each piece of cube steak in flour, then in egg mixture, then back in flour, pressing the coating on firmly.
  3. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat to 170C. Fry the steaks for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Drain on a wire rack.
  4. For the gravy, pour off all but 3 tablespoons of oil and drippings. Whisk in 3 tablespoons of the remaining seasoned flour. Gradually stir in the whole milk. Cook, stirring constantly, until thick and bubbly, about 4 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper.
  5. Serve the chicken fried steak with cream gravy poured generously over the top.
