- 4 cube steaks (about 1/2 inch thick)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 cup vegetable oil for frying
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Season the cube steaks with salt and pepper.
- In a shallow dish, mix flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
- In another dish, whisk eggs and milk.
- Dredge each steak in the flour mixture, dip in the egg mixture, then coat again in the flour mixture.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry steaks until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
- For the gravy, melt butter in a saucepan. Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute.
- Gradually whisk in milk, stirring constantly until thickened. Season with salt and pepper.
