- Prepare the Coating:
- In one bowl, whisk the eggs and buttermilk together.
- In another bowl, mix flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Coat the Steaks:
- Dip each cube steak into the flour mixture, then into the egg mixture, and back into the flour mixture, ensuring it’s well coated.
- Fry:
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry each steak for 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown and crispy. Remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate.
Creamy Gravy
- Make a Roux:
- In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute.
- Add Milk:
- Gradually whisk in milk, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Simmer until the gravy thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
To Serve:
- Place a piece of chicken fried steak on a plate, pour the creamy gravy on top, and serve with a generous scoop of mashed potatoes.
