Chicken-Fried Steak With Cream Gravy
- Cooking spray
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup 1 percent milk
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- Hot sauce, to taste
- 3 cups cornflakes, crushed
- 2 teaspoons The Lady's House Seasoning (see below)
- 4 cube steaks (4 ounces each)
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/2 cup low-sodium beef broth
- 1/4 cup fat-free half-and-half (or use low-fat)
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.
- Pour the flour onto a dinner plate.
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together the milk, egg and a few dashes of hot sauce.
- Place the cornflakes, seasoned with 1 teaspoon of House Seasoning, on a second dinner plate.
- Season the steaks with the remaining teaspoon of House Seasoning.
- Dredge them in the flour, patting off any excess, then dip into the egg mixture, letting any excess drip off.
- Finally, dredge them in the crushed cornflakes, pressing lightly to help the flakes adhere.
- Place the steaks on the prepared baking sheet.
- Spray the tops of the steaks lightly with extra cooking spray.
- Bake until cooked through, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small cup, mix the cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of the beef broth and stir until the cornstarch is dissolved.
- In a small saucepan, combine the cornstarch mixture with the remaining beef broth and the half-and-half.
- Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently.
- Let the gravy boil, stirring constantly, until thickened, about 2 minutes.
- Season generously with pepper and serve the steaks smothered in the gravy.
- The Lady's House Seasoning: Combine 1 cup salt, 1/4 cup freshly ground black pepper and 1/4 cup garlic powder.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 6 months.
