Chicken Fried Steak No. 1
- 1 1/2 pounds beef, round steak
- 2 large eggs
- 1 x salt and black pepper
- 1 x flour, all-purpose
- 1 x meat tenderizer
- Cut the round steak into slightly small portions and beat with a mallet or back of a knife until thin and all ratty looking.
- Beat the eggs with a little water.
- Mix the flour, salt, pepper, and about 1 1/2 teaspoon of tenderizer together.
- Dredge the meat through the eggs and then in the flour mixture.
- Fry on medium-high heat in oil and butter.
- Be careful that it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan.
- As you cook, sprinkle little bits of the flour mix in the pan so that you get a lot of good drippings to use for the gravy.
- When the meat is cooked through, drain on paper towels while you make the gravy.
- Gravy: Drain most of the oil out of the pan, and add about 1/2 stick of butter or margerine.
- Stir well over medium low heat to scrape all the drippings off the bottom of the pan.
- Sprinkle some more of the flour mix into the pan until you almost have a roux.
- Add milk a little bit at a time, stirring well with a flat spatula to get it all mixed up.
- When you reach desired consistency, remove from heat and serve with the steak.
- Try serving with black-eyed peas and lots of mashed potatoes or rice.
