Delicious country fried beef chops with turkey bacon gravy recipe with detailed instructions and nutritional information.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs beef sirloin steaks, cut 1 inch thick
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 6 slices turkey bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1/2 cup beef broth

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Pat beef steaks dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper (if using). Dredge each steak in flour, pressing to coat evenly.
  2. Step 2: Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef steaks and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked to desired doneness. Remove steaks from skillet and set aside.
  3. Step 3: In the same skillet, add remaining butter and crumble the cooked turkey bacon. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until bacon is heated through and slightly crispy.
  4. Step 4: Sprinkle flour over the bacon and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, to create a roux. Gradually whisk in milk and beef broth until smooth. Bring to a simmer, stirring frequently, until gravy thickens.
  5. Step 5: Reduce heat to low and simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until gravy reaches desired consistency. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
  6. Step 6: Return beef steaks to the skillet, spooning gravy over the top. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Store leftover beef chops and gravy separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat leftover beef chops and gravy gently in a skillet over medium-low heat, adding a splash of milk or broth to the gravy if needed to restore its consistency.
  • Serve these hearty chops with creamy mashed potatoes and a side of vibrant green beans for a complete and satisfying meal.
  • For extra flavor depth in the gravy, sauté a finely chopped shallot or onion with the bacon before making the roux.
