Tonight called for comfort food. Pork cubed steak over mashed potatoes and lots of gravy. I'll be giving you the recipes for the steak and gravy on this blog post.
2 lbs. cubed pork steak
1/2 cup self-rising flour
1/2 t. kosher salt
1/4 t. freshly ground black pepper
1/4 t. granulated garlic
1/4 t. onion powder
1/3 cup vegetable oil
Place flour in a shallow plate or pin tin. Add seasonings and use a fork to mix thoroughly. Dredge the cubed steak in the flour and place on a separate plate while your bread the remaining pork.
Heat oil over high heat in a large skillet. When a drop of flour on the oil sizzles, you're ready to add in the floured cubed steak a few pieces at a time. Don't crowd the skillet and cook in batches. Lower the heat to medium-high.
It will only take a few minutes per side to cook. When the flour has browned and starts to get crunchy, you're ready to remove those from the skillet to a paper towel lined plate and continue cooking.
For the gravy:
2 T. butter
2 T. flour
2 chicken broth
salt and pepper to taste
In a medium skillet, over medium-high heat, melt butter. When it sizzles, add flour and stir to combine. Let cook for 1 - 2 minutes to cook the raw taste out of the flour.
Slowly pour in chicken broth, whisking constantly. Lower heat to low and allow the gravy to thicken. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
yes, that would be very comforting :)
