How to cook deliciously - Chicken Fried Steak

1. Stage

Heat 1/2 inch shortening in a large, heavy skillet to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C).

2. Stage

While shortening is heating, cut beef crosswise into 4 equal cutlets. Pound each cutlet thinly with a moistened mallet or the side of a cleaver.

3. Stage

Mix together 1 cup flour and garlic powder in a shallow bowl. Beat together buttermilk, egg, salt, and pepper in a second shallow bowl. Dip cutlets in flour mixture, turning to coat evenly. Dip in egg mixture, then in flour mixture once more.

4. Stage

Cook cutlets, one at a time, in hot shortening until golden brown, turning once. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Drain grease, reserving 1/2 cup drippings in the skillet.

5. Stage

Blend remaining 1/4 cup flour into reserved drippings to form a paste. Cook and stir over medium heat, gradually adding milk until desired consistency is reached. For thicker gravy, add less milk; for thinner gravy, stir in more. Season gravy with salt and pepper. Serve over fried cutlets.
