Instructions
For the Chicken Fried Steak
- Sprinkle the cube steaks with sea salt and black pepper on both sides.
- In a shallow bowl, combine the heavy cream and eggs. Fork whisk.
- Combine the pork rinds, Parmesan cheese, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika and cayenne pepper. Pour the mixture into a thin layer on a large plate. This will be your breading.
- In a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat, heat 1/4 to 1/2 inch of oil.
- Dip the cube steak into the egg wash and then dredge in the breading, coating thoroughly on both sides.
- Drop the breaded cube steak into the oil. Fry until crispy and golden brown, about 3 minutes for each side.
- Top with the Creamy Sausage Gravy.
For the Creamy Sausage Gravy
- Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the butter is melted, add
- the sausage (crumbled if ground, sliced if using link sausage). Cook until the sausage is browned. Using a slotted spoon, remove the sausage from the pan, retaining the drippings. Set the sausage aside.
- To the drippings in the pan, add the onion and garlic. Lower the heat to medium-low and cook until the onion is translucent and soft. Stir often to avoid burning the garlic.
- To the pan, add the heavy cream, parsley and sea salt. Increase the heat to medium and bring to a boil. Once the gravy begins to boil, lower the heat to low and simmer. Once the gravy begins to thicken, add the sausage back to the pan.
- Pour the gravy over top of the Chicken Fried Steak and ENJOY!
