COUNTRY STYLE STEAK RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• Cut the meat with the grain into 1/2-inch thick slices and season on both sides with salt and pepper. Place the flour into a pie pan. Dredge the pieces of meat on both sides in the flour. Tenderize the meat, using a needling device, until each slice is 1/4-inch thick. Dredge in the flour again and set aside.
• Add enough of the vegetable oil or bacon fat to just cover the bottom of a 4 to 5-quart Dutch oven set over medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the steaks to the pan, being careful not to overcrowd. Cook until golden brown on both sides, approximately 2 minutes per side. Remove the steaks to a plate and repeat until all of the steaks have been browned.
• Remove the last steaks from the pot and add the chicken broth and thyme and whisk until the liquid just comes to a boil. Return the steaks to the pot and make sure they are all submerged in the liquid. Cover the pot and place it in the oven on the middle rack. Cook for 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until the meat is tender and falling apart.

Steps:

• Prepare your breading station by placing the flour, beaten eggs, and pancake mix in separate bowls. Dredge each steak in the flour, dip in the egg and finally coat in the pancake mix.
• Heat up half of your oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the steak, one at a time, and pan-fry for 4 to 5 minutes on each side.
• Set the steaks aside to cool.
• For the gravy, make a roux with the remaining oil. Add the flour and stir.
• Once it is lightly brown and gives off a nutty smell, add in the milk and whisk until it combines evenly.
• Bring to a simmer and continue simmering for 8 to 10 minutes until thickened.
• Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, then pour over the steaks.
• Garnish with parsley and serve with vegetables and potatoes done to your preference.
