Spicy Pepper Chicken Fried Steak
Ingredients:
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Beef cube steaks | 4 |
| All-purpose flour | 2 cups |
| Black pepper | 2 teaspoons |
| Cayenne pepper | 1 teaspoon |
| Paprika | 1 teaspoon |
| Garlic powder | 1 teaspoon |
| Onion powder | 1 teaspoon |
| Eggs | 2 |
| Milk | 1/4 cup |
| Salt | To taste |
| Oil for frying |
Instructions:
- Spice Up the Flour: In a shallow dish, combine the flour with all the dry spices: black pepper, cayenne pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. This will create your flavorful coating for the steak.
- Make the Egg Wash: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. This will help the crispy coating adhere to the steak.
- Season the Steaks: Don’t forget to season the cube steaks with a sprinkle of salt for extra flavor.
- Triple Dredge for Perfection: Dredge each steak three times: first in the spiced flour mixture, then dip it into the egg wash, and finally coat it again in the flour mixture for a thick and crispy crust.
- Heat Up the Oil: Pour enough oil into a large skillet to reach about a 1/2 inch depth. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until it’s hot and shimmering.
- Fry to Golden Perfection: Carefully add the coated steaks to the hot oil. Fry them for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they’re golden brown and crispy all around.
- Drain the Oil: Once cooked, transfer the steaks to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
- Serve and Enjoy! Serve your spicy chicken-fried steak hot with your favorite sides and enjoy this delicious and flavorful dish!
