Country Fried Steak with Gravy {7 WW+ Dinner}

I've finally found a dish I haven't really enjoyed since starting this most recent weight watchers journey. I'll probably try and re-work the country friend steak recipe I've already used to make it more points friendly instead of using this one again. But it was tasty enough to finish the whole meal. I'll give it that much. It just didn't have enough "yum" for me if you know what I mean... and if you don't, sorry.

Country Fried Steak

• 1 pound cube steak, trimmed and cut into 4 portions
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup White Whole Wheat Flour
• 1/4 cup Kashi Go Lean Crunch Cereal, processed finely in food processor
• 1 1/4 cups fat-free beef broth
• 1/4 cup low fat buttermilk
• 1 tablespoon water
• 2 egg white, lightly whisked
• 1/4 cup cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon table salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Preheat oven to 350F. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.

Place all-purpose flour on a large plate. Place egg whites in a shallow dish. Whisk Fiber One breadcrumbs, whole-wheat flour, the 1/4 cup cornstarch, garlic and paprika in another shallow dish. Season both sides of steak with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Dredge the steak in the flour, shaking off excess; dip in the egg whites, then dredge in the Fiber One/flour mixture.

Spray a large nonstick skillet with nonfat cooking spray, and heat over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium and add 2 pieces of the steak; cook until browned on both sides, turning once, 3 to 5 minutes total. Transfer the steak to the prepared baking sheet and repeat with the remaining pieces of steak. Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and bake until cooked through, about 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, add broth to the pan and boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until reduced to about 1 cup, approx 3 to 5 minutes. Whisk water and the remaining 1 tablespoon cornstarch until smooth. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the left over Fiber One/flour mixture. Return to the heat and cook, stirring, until thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in buttermilk; season with the remaining salt and pepper. Serve the steak topped with the gravy.
