Chicken Fried Steak Recipe

Chicken Fried Steak Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Steak

   Season cube steaks with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.

2. 2

   Breading Station

   Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs mixed with milk, and one with flour for the second coating.

3. 3

   Bread the Steaks

   Dredge each steak in flour, dip in the egg mixture, and then coat again in flour. Ensure they are fully coated.

4. 4

   Fry the Steaks

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

5. 5

   Make the Gravy

   In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium, add butter and scrape up any browned bits. Stir in flour for the gravy and cook for 1-2 minutes. Gradually whisk in chicken broth and milk. Cook until thickened, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

6. 6

   Serve

   Serve the chicken fried steak topped with country gravy alongside mashed potatoes and your choice of vegetable or baked beans.
