Best Golden Steak Fingers Recipes

STEAK FINGERS

Steps:

• Cut each steak into 3 strips, about 1 ¼" wide, and set aside until ready to use.
• Have a dredging station ready with three rimmed trays or pie dishes. In the first tray whisk together 1 cup flour, 1 teaspoon of salt and a ½ teaspoon of pepper. In the second try, combine milk and eggs. For the third tray, whisk together 1 cup flour, cracker crumbs, 1 ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon black pepper.
• Add canola oil to a large frying pan, Dutch oven, or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and allow to come to temperature. The oil should be between 350°- 375°.Next to the skillet, have ready a rimmed baking sheet, lined with paper towels. Place a cooling rack atop the paper towels if you do not want the bottom of your steak fingers to get soggy.
• In the meantime, dredge each piece of steak in the flour mixture, then the egg wash, followed by the flour-cracker mixture. Make sure to coat both sides of the steak strips thoroughly and evenly across each station.
• Add the steak fingers to the oil in batches, taking care not to overcrowd the skillet. Cook for 3 ½ minutes, turn and cook for an additional 3 minutes on the other side.
• Sprinkle the strips with Kosher salt while they are still hot for an extra punch of flavor (if desired). Serve alongside mashed potatoes and Homemade Country Gravy and enjoy.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the flour, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, baking powder and Original seasoning.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk and remaining 1 tablespoon of cornstarch.
• In a deep fryer or Dutch oven add about 3 inches of the oil and preheat to 350 degrees F.
• Dredge the meat strips in the flour mixture and then dip in the buttermilk mixture to generously coat. Repeat back in the flour mixture, wet mixture and finish in the dry mixture. Set on a wire rack for at least 3 minutes to let the batter and flour dry which will help it stick to the meat.
• Fry the strips about 3 to 4 minutes or until golden brown. Place them on a wire rack. Serve warm.

GOLDEN STEAK FINGERS

Steps:

• 1. Combine flour, Parmesan, basil, salt and pepper in a small bowl; mix well. Lightly beat eggs in a medium bowl. Dip steak into eggs, allowing excess to drain back into bowl. Coat steak with flour mixture, patting gently so coating adheres. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry steak fingers in batches, turning pieces once, until coating is golden, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, heat marinara sauce in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Place steak fingers on a serving platter. Serve with sauce for dipping.

STEAK FINGERS AND GRAVY

Steps:

• For the steak fingers: Combine the flour, seasoned salt, pepper and cayenne in a dish. Whisk together the milk and eggs in a separate dish.
• To bread the meat, first dredge in the flour mixture, then dip quickly in the egg mixture and then put back into the flour mixture to coat on both sides. Continue until all the meat is breaded.
• Heat the butter and vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Fry the steak strips 4 or 5 at a time, turning midway through. When golden brown, remove from the skillet to a paper towel-lined plate. Continue with the remaining meat. Cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
• For the gravy: Pour off all the grease from the skillet, and then add 1/4 cup of the grease back in. Sprinkle on the flour. Whisk the mixture till it becomes a paste (add more flour if you need to) and cook the paste over medium-low heat until it's deep golden brown. Pour in about 3 cups of the milk, whisking constantly. Allow the gravy to cook and thicken, whisking regularly and adding more milk if it seems too thick right off the bat. Season the gravy with salt and pepper and pour into small dishes.
• Serve the steak fingers with the gravy. Yum!
