      Title: Jeff's Chicken Fried Steak
 Categories: Beef
      Yield: 1 Serving
 
MMMMM---------------------------STEAK--------------------------------
    1/2 lb Round steak
      1 c  Flour
      1 c  Milk
      1    Egg
      1 ts Garlic powder
    1/2 ts Salt
    1/2 ts Pepper
           Oil; for cooking

MMMMM------------------------CREAM GRAVY-----------------------------
      4 tb Cooking oil; from the pan
    1/4 c  Flour
      1 c  Milk
      1 c  Water
           Salt
           Pepper
 
  Steak:
  
  Heat 1/4" oil in heavy frying pan to medium high. Combine 1 cup milk
  with the egg, whisk to mix. Pour into 9" round shallow pan. Season 1
  cup flour with the garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Sift together
  into a second 9" round shallow pan. Tenderize the round steak well,
  trimming off excess fat and ligament. Dip the meat into the egg and
  milk mixture, then dredge in the seasoned flour, pressing the flour
  into the meat. Repeat for a crispier coating. When oil is hot, place
  the meat into oil, adjusting temperature, to allow the meat to cook
  for 9 to 12 minutes. This allows additional tenderizing of the meat.
  When fried steak is golden brown, remove to drain on paper towels.
  Serve with cream gravy.
  
  Cream Gravy:
  
  Pour off all but 4 tb of the cooking oil from the pan. Over medium
  heat, slowly stir in the 1/4 cup flour, stirring constantly. Combine
  the 1 cup milk and 1 cup water, slowly add to oil & flour mix,
  stirring constantly. Stirring with a large spatula helps. Loosen
  brown bits rom bottom of pan while stirring, there's great flavor
  there.
  
  Add salt and pepper to taste, raising heat to bring to a boil. When
  bubbly, lower heat and continue to stir, simmering for 5 minutes.
  
  It's traditional to serve the meat with mashed potatoes, covering the
  meat and potatoes with the gravy. Large yeast rolls go great with
  this meal too. Well worth the effort!
