Sounds good #1

This is the first of many recipes I'll probably post from one of the several magazines I get about food. Today's comes from Bon Appetit May 2008 issue page 89

Chicken Fried Steak with country gravy:
Serves about 4 and goes well with green beans and biscuits

1  Cup beef broth, divided
1/2  Cup all purpose flour
4  4-5 inch pieces of skirt steak
2 Tablespoons butter
1 Fully cooked breakfast pork-sausage (1 ounce) finely chopped
1/2 Cup whipping cream 
1/2 Teaspoon dried sage
1/3 cup chopped green onion (scallions) tops
Pinch of ground cloves

Pour 1/2 cup broth into shallow bowl. Place flour in another shallow bowl. Sprinkle steak pieces on both sides with salt and pepper. Dip steaks into flour, then into broth, then into flour again, coating each time. 

Melt butter in large nonstick pan over high heat. Add steaks. Saute until brown, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to plate. Pour off butter from pan into bowl. Add 1 teaspoon flour from bowl. Whisk in remaining 1/2 cup of broth, sausage, cream, sage and pinch of ground cloves. Boil gravy until nappe (thick enough to coat spoon). Season with salt and pepper if necessary. Mix in green onions. Spoon over steaks.

MMMMM TASTY!
