Ingredients

• 8 oz Angus steak
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 3 tbsp vegetable oil
• 6 oz breakfast sausage
• 1 1/2 cups milk
• 2 tbsp butter
• 3 medium potatoes
• 2 large eggs
• 2 slices bread slices
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp paprika

Instructions

1. Step 1: Peel and cut 3 medium potatoes into 1/4-inch thick strips. Toss with 1 tbsp vegetable oil, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp paprika, and a pinch of salt. Spread on a baking sheet and bake at 425°F for 30-35 minutes, turning halfway, until golden and crispy.
2. Step 2: In a shallow bowl, mix 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Dredge 8 oz Angus steak in the flour mixture, shaking off excess.
3. Step 3: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak and fry for 3-4 minutes per side until the edges are crispy and cooked through. Remove and keep warm.
4. Step 4: In the same skillet, add 6 oz breakfast sausage and cook over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes.
5. Step 5: Sprinkle 2 tbsp all-purpose flour over the cooked sausage and stir to coat, cooking for 1 minute to eliminate raw flour taste.
6. Step 6: Gradually whisk in 1 1/2 cups milk, stirring constantly until the gravy thickens and coats the back of a spoon, about 4-5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
7. Step 7: In a separate pan, melt 2 tbsp butter over medium heat. Crack in 2 large eggs and cook to your preferred style (sunny-side-up, over-easy, etc.).
8. Step 8: Toast 2 slices of bread until golden brown.
9. Step 9: Plate the fried steak, ladle the sausage gravy generously over it, add the eggs on the side, serve with the hoe fries and toast for a filling meal.
