Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 2 large eggs
• 2 cups cold water
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 1 cup vegetable oil for frying, or as needed
• 1 (2.64 ounce) package country gravy mix
• 2 (6 ounce) beef top sirloin steaks
• ¼ teaspoon seasoning salt, or more to taste

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Serve hot steaks with gravy.

Step 2

Pour flour into a mixing bowl and season generously with seasoning salt, salt, and pepper.

Step 3

Whisk eggs and milk together in a separate bowl.

Step 4

Place steaks on a cutting board between two layers of plastic wrap; beat with a meat tenderizer on both sides for 3 to 5 minutes.

Step 5

Discard plastic wrap and sprinkle seasoning salt on top of steaks. Dip steaks in flour mixture until coated on both sides. Dip into egg mixture, then back into flour mixture a second time; steaks should be completely covered in flour on both sides. Sprinkle again with seasoning salt.

Step 6

Fill a large skillet halfway with vegetable oil and heat to medium-high. Allow oil to heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 7

Fry steaks in the hot oil for 3 minutes per side. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.

Step 8

While steaks are frying, stir water into gravy mix in 2-quart microwavable bowl. Microwave on high until thickened, stirring every minute, 4 to 6 minutes total.
