Instructions

Brine the Ribeye Steaks in the Brine for at least 4 hours, or up to overnight.
Remove steaks from brine, pat dry, and pound to 1/2 inch thickness.
In a shallow dish, combine all Coating ingredients.
In another shallow dish, whisk together the Egg Wash ingredients.
Dredge each steak in the Coating mixture, ensuring a thorough coating.
Heat about 1 inch of clarified butter or high-smoke point oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Fry the steaks for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked to desired doneness.
Remove steaks and drain on a wire rack.
To make the Madeira Gravy, melt Butter in the same skillet over medium heat. Whisk in Flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to make a roux.
Gradually whisk in Beef Broth, then Madeira Wine, stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Bring to a simmer and cook until slightly reduced, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in Heavy Cream and Worcestershire Sauce. Season Gravy with Black Pepper. Serve the Chicken Fried Steak immediately with Gravy.
