Pioneer Woman Minute Steak is a little time-consuming recipe as it involves two stages. One is to prepare the meat as steak and the other is to prepare the gravy for the steak. You also have to boil and mash the potatoes to serve them alongside the steak.
The minute steak recipe is the most classic version of preparing the steak. The double-coated meat fried in the creamy butter mix and then the creamy gravy made out of flour mixture all combine to make the dish more luscious and flavorful. You can also sprinkle dill over to have an additional flavor in it. Have fun with the main course.

Method to Make The Pioneer Woman Minute Steak
Bring all the necessary ingredients near you on the shelf. Take the meat in a bowl. Mix the flour with the salt in a separate bowl. Then in another bowl pour the milk into the beaten eggs.
Take the meat pieces one by one and start coating them. Firstly coat with the flour layer and then dip it in the milk mixture. Then make another flour coating over it.
After coating all the pieces you have to fry them. For frying, heat some butter in the pan and sprinkle a little quantity of flour into it. Stir and put the meat into it. Fry until the sides of each piece get brown. Make sure to flip.
Then you have to prepare the gravy for the steak. For this purpose, heat up the grease in which you have fried the steak. Then add flour to this grease and stir well to turn it into a paste.
Once it attains a dark golden brown color, bring the milk and pour it into it.
Then add the seasonings into it. Stir well to make a thick textured gravy. Put the cooked meat steaks on the serving plate, put the boiled mashed potatoes aside, and then pour the prepared gravy over it.
FAQs?
What to do if the gravy gets too thick?
To make the gravy thin you have to add more milk to it. This will reduce its thickness. And if the gravy still feels greasy you can increase the quantity of flour added to it.
Is it necessary to add eggs to the coating?
Yes, eggs are major binding agents that keep the meat together when it gets tender after cooking. Moreover, the egg and milk mixture makes the meat more soft and juicy.
