Description

Chicken Fried Steak and Gravy evokes the comforting flavors of Southern cuisine. This dish features tenderized cube steak, offering a satisfying and hearty meal. The steak is prepared by coating the cutlets in a blend of almond flour and finely ground pork rinds, creating a crispy and flavorful crust.

Pan-frying ensures a golden-brown exterior, while the inside remains juicy and tender. Complementing the savory steak is a creamy cauliflower gravy, rich and delicious. The gravy's smooth texture and subtle sweetness pair perfectly with the savory, crispy steak, creating a balanced and harmonious flavor profile.

Together, the steak and gravy create a comforting and satisfying dish. Served over a bed of peppery arugula, the combination adds a fresh and vibrant contrast to the richness of the steak and gravy. This dish is versatile and can be served with various side dishes, such as roasted broccoli, asparagus, or additional cauliflower, offering a range of textures and flavors to complete the meal.

The name "Chicken Fried Steak" refers to the cooking method rather than the ingredients. The steak is prepared similarly to fried chicken, where a tenderized cutlet is coated in seasoned flour and fried until golden and crispy. This technique transforms a typically tougher cut of beef into a tender and flavorful dish, making it a beloved classic.

Instructions

    1.
    Gather all of your ingredients so you are ready to cook. Pat the cube steaks dry with a paper towel.
    2.
    Remove the tough core of the cauliflower and chop it into florets.
    3.
    Place the cauliflower into a pot and fill it with water so water just covers the tops. Heat the stovetop to medium high heat until the water begins to boil, then reduce the heat to medium low and cover with a lid. Simmer for about 20 minutes, or until cauliflower is soft.
    4.
    While the cauliflower is cooking, grind the pork rinds in a high speed blender for a few seconds until they turn into a powder.
    5.
    Mix the pork rind dust and almond flour together in a pyrex container. In another container, beat the egg. Season the steaks on both sides with ¼ tsp. each of salt, garlic powder and paprika.
    6.
    One at a time, dip the steaks into the egg wash, and then into the flour. Press the flour into the steaks if needed.
    7.
    Melt 3 Tbsp. of butter in a large pan over medium high heat. Once the butter has melted and started to bubble, move the pan around so that butter covers all inches of it and add the steaks in one at a time.
    8.
    Allow the steaks to sear undisturbed for about 1 minute, then flip them over. When flipping them over, make sure that melted butter is distributed across the pan so the flour won’t separate from the steak. After another minute, continue to flip the steaks every 30 seconds or so until they reach your desired doneness. Carefully remove the steaks from the pan and remove the pan from the heat.
    9.
    Give the cauliflower a quick drain and blend it in a blender or food processor until smooth. In the same pan you cooked the steaks in, melt the remaining tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the cauliflower puree to the pan and scrape all of the browned bits off the bottom of the pan with a spoon. Add ⅓ cup of water or broth and ¼ cup of cream or coconut milk to the pan, along with ¼ tsp. each garlic powder and onion powder. Heat over medium low heat, stirring occasionally, for 2-3 minutes. Add the lemon juice while it is cooking.
    10.
    Remove the gravy from the stove top and add salt to taste. Add a cup of arugula to a plate, and top with a steak and ¼ of the gravy. Enjoy!
