Ingredients

• 1/2 cup plus 2 teaspoons all-purpose flour, divided
• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 2 eggs
• 4 cubed or minute steaks (about 4 ounces each)
• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 3/4 cup milk
• 1 tablespoon ketchup

Preparation

Step 1

1. On a sheet of waxed paper, combine 1/2 cup flour, thyme, 1/4 teaspoon salt, garlic powder, black pepper and cayenne. In a shallow bowl, whisk eggs and 1 tablespoon water. Dredge steaks in flour mixture, then in egg mixture. Dip coated steaks in flour mixture again.

2. In a 10-inch skillet, heat 1 1/2 tablespoons oil over medium heat. Add 2 steaks; cook, turning once, until golden brown and cooked through, about 4 minutes. Transfer steaks to a plate; keep warm. Repeat with remaining oil and steaks. Transfer steaks to plate; reserve drippings in skillet.

3. Whisk remaining 2 teaspoons flour into drippings, then whisk in milk and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, whisking gravy, until slightly thickened and smooth. Stir in ketchup. Serve steaks with the gravy alongside.
