Chicken Fried Steak

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken Fried Steak

    In a shallow dish, combine flour, salt, and black pepper. In another bowl, whisk together buttermilk and eggs. Dip each steak first in the buttermilk mixture, then dredge in the flour mixture, pressing to adhere.

  2. 2

    Fry the Steaks

    Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry each steak for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove from skillet and let drain on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Make the Gravy

    In the same skillet, crumble and cook jalapeño sausage until browned. Sprinkle flour over the sausage and stir to combine. Gradually add milk, stirring constantly until thickened. Season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Mashed Potatoes

    Peel and cut russet potatoes into chunks. Boil in salted water until tender. Drain and return to the pot. Add butter, milk, salt, and black pepper. Mash until creamy.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Plate the fried steak, top with jalapeño sausage gravy, and serve alongside whipped mashed potatoes.
