Directions
Trim visible fat from meat and cut into 4 equal serving pieces.
Pound steak with a mallet to tenderize it.
Mix flour, salt, and pepper in a shallow, wide bowl and dredge each piece of meat in it, coating well on both sides.
Heat grease or oil until hot but not smoking in a heavy, wide skillet with a lid.
Brown the meat pieces on both sides, turn heat down a bit, cover and let steak fry like chicken for 15 to 20 minutes, until done.
Remove cover and let steak crisp for about 5 minutes.
Take steak from the pan and drain.
Leave about 2 tables of drippings and all the browned flecks of crust in the pan.
Turn the heat a bit lower, sprinkle flour into the drippings and stir to keep from lumping while it browns. Slowly add milk, stirring.
Let it cook until thick, about 3 to 5 minutes.
Taste and add seasoning, if needed.
Serve gravy on the side. Makes 4 servings.
