Old Fashioned Steak Fingers Husbands Favorite Recipes

STEAK FINGERS

Steps:

• Get your skillet hot before putting your steaks into pan. Add just enough oil to cover bottom. They must sizzle just a little bit as you put them into skillet, enough to sear seasoning into steak.
• Cut your steak into long lengths (one to two inches wide).
• Dip them into flour, pressing and rolling flour into steak.
• Place steak into skillet(must sizzle).
• Very "lightly" sprinkle on seasoning.
• Do not over salt. Put seasoning in the palm of your hand and sprinkle on. Do not use from seasoning container.
• Let cook till steak is lightly brown.
• Turn over and sear seasonings into steak.
• Cook till lightly brown and cooked all the way thru.
• Place on steak platter garnished with parsley or place your favorite dip in the center.

STEAK FINGERS FOR RARE STEAK LOVERS

Steps:

• Cut up Round Steak or Sirloin Steak into finger-sized pieces (about 1" or so in diameter, but no thinner or the meat will cook too fast), about 1/3 to 1/4 pound per person.
• (To make slicing easier, place the meat in the freezer for about 30 minutes before slicing.).
• Dip the Steak Fingers into the Soy Sauce, then dredge in the flour. (You can use a plastic bag for the flour-dipping part.).
• Repeat Step 3, then place all the meat on a plate or platter. (At this point, if I want the pieces to turn out especially rare, I put them back into the freezer for a bit before cooking.).
• When you get a plateful of breaded Steak Fingers prepared, quickly place them into a frying pan of heated vegetable oil one at a time. They should really sizzle as soon as you drop them into the oil. As soon as the entire plateful of meat is in the oil, begin turning the pieces. As soon as you have finished turning all the pieces, begin taking them out to drain on a paper towel covered plate. Sprinkle with cracked pepper and serve over hot rice with a salad.
• NOTE: The entire frying process should only take a few minutes. DO NOT LEAVE THE STOVE OR THEY WILL OVERCOOK. The meat may turn out tough if it is cooked well done.
• P.S. These steak fingers heat well the next day for lunch, just so long as they are not cooked well done to begin with.

OLD-FASHIONED "STEAK" FINGERS (HUSBAND'S FAVORITE)

Steps:

• 1. With sharp butcher knife or cleaver (carefully) cut each frozen patty into 4 pieces.
• 2. Dip each steak finger into milk, sprinkle with salt and pepper and coat in flour. I use a gallon sized zip lock bag for flour. Dip each coated piece in milk again and then flour-for second coating.
• 3. Deep fry in melted hot Crisco until done and browned on each side. Place on absorbent paper towels. Sprinkle lightly with salt, if desired. Note: Serve with gravy or ketchup.
