Peppered Pork Steak Recipe

Season pork steaks with salt then season generously with ground black pepper on both sides. Set aside

Heat a cast iron pan with enough oil for pan frying over medium heat. Add pork steaks one at a time and cook until cooked through on both sides. Set aside.

Remove excess oil from the pan, leaving only about 1 1/2 tablespoons left in the pan. Add about 1 teaspoon black pepper to the pan. Cook, stirring, until aromatic, about 30 seconds. Add bouillon cube and stir to dissolve. Sprinkle in flour and stir to mix with the oil. Pour in water while stirring to mix the flour and dislodge the fond on the bottom of the pan to mix into the sauce.

Cook until sauce has thickened. Place fried pork steaks into the gravy and simmer until just heated through. Remove from the pan and served immediately while hot with steamed rice and more gravy on the side.
