THE BEST COUNTRY FRIED STEAK AND GRAVY RECIPE!

buttermilk

🥗Healthier: low-fat yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + vinegar

Low-fat yogurt reduces calories while providing tanginess.

beef steak

🥗Healthier: chicken breast

💰Cheaper: pork cutlets

Chicken breast is lower in fat and pork cutlets are often less expensive.

gravy

🥗Healthier: mushroom sauce

💰Cheaper: canned gravy

Mushroom sauce is lighter and adds flavor, while canned gravy is budget-friendly.

Season the steaks with seasoning salt.

In a shallow dish, season the flour with the onion and garlic powders.

In a separate dish, whisk the eggs and milk together.

Dredge each steak, one by one, into the flour, then the egg mixture, and back into the flour. Shake off the excess flour.

Heat oil in a pan on a medium-high setting.

Place steaks into the pan and fry for 4-5 minutes per side.

Place steaks on a wired rack or paper towel to drain; tent with foil to keep warm.

In the same pan, add butter to the steak drippings. Once butter has melted, whisk in the flour.

Pour in the chicken stock and milk while whisking. Simmer until gravy thickens. Salt and pepper to taste.

Serve the gravy over the Country Fried Steaks.
