# How-To:
01 - Pat the cube steaks dry using paper towels to remove excess moisture.
02 - Arrange three shallow bowls: one with flour blended with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cayenne, salt, and pepper; another with beaten eggs mixed with 1/2 cup milk; and the last with breadcrumbs.
03 - Dredge each steak first in the seasoned flour, then dip into the egg mixture, and finally coat thoroughly with breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
04 - Pour vegetable oil into a large skillet to a depth of approximately 0.4 inches and warm over medium-high heat.
05 - Fry the steaks in batches for 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden brown and crisp. Remove and drain on paper towels; keep warm.
06 - Remove all but 3 tbsp of oil from the skillet. Whisk in flour and cook over medium heat for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in milk, scraping up browned bits, and cook until thickened, about 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
07 - Plate the fried steaks and spoon the creamy white gravy over each. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
