directions

  • Beat together the egg and milk then set aside.
  • Combine the flour and spices, mix well, and spread onto a flat tray or plate.
  • Dip each steak into the milk/egg mixture and dredge each in the flour mixture, then dip back into the milk/egg mixture.
  • Heat 1/2 inch deep cooking oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat for a few minutes.
  • Check the temperature with a drop of the egg/milk mixture; if it pops and sizzles, it's ready.
  • Carefully place each steak into the hot oil, allowing to fry for 3 to 5 minutes, then turn over and cook another 3 to 5 minutes, depending upon the size of the cutlets.
  • Remove steaks from oil and allow to drain on paper towel.
  • Leave about 3-4 tablespoons of the oil from frying the steak in the skillet and reduce heat to medium.
  • Combine all ingredients for gravy on a bowl and mix until flour is desolved.
  • Pour into skillet and cook until desired thickness is reached.

  1. the family loved it.
     
  2. I had to add a comment. I just made this again and realized I must have mis-read the recipe the first time. I used 3 teaspoons of pepper not tablespoons and it was perfect. When i made it again I used tablespoons and it was way toooo spicy. I don't know if it's a typo or not but if you don't love pepper, I mean really love pepper use teaspoons. Otherwise, this recipe's delicious
