Chicken Fried Steak

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken Fried Steak

    Season the beef cube steaks with salt, pepper, and paprika. Dip each steak into buttermilk, then dredge in flour, ensuring a thorough coating.

  2. 2

    Fry the Steaks

    In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Fry the coated steaks for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Make the Gravy

    In the same skillet, remove excess oil, leaving about 2 tablespoons. Add pork sausage and cook until browned. Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in milk, cooking until gravy thickens. Season with salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Cook the Breakfast Potatoes

    Boil breakfast potatoes until fork-tender, then drain. Sauté in a skillet with butter, salt, and pepper until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Scramble the Eggs

    In a bowl, whisk eggs with a pinch of salt. Pour into a non-stick skillet and scramble over medium heat until cooked to desired consistency.

  6. 6

    Toast the Bread

    Toast slices of bread until golden brown.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the chicken fried steak topped with gravy, alongside scrambled eggs, breakfast potatoes, and toast.
