Method

Chicken Fried Steak

  1. 1

    Prepare the Breading Station

    In three separate bowls, set up a breading station: one with all-purpose flour mixed with salt, pepper, and paprika, the second with buttermilk and egg whisked together, and the third empty.

  2. 2

    Bread the Steak

    Dredge each piece of the beef cube steak in the flour mixture, then dip it into the buttermilk mixture, and finally back into the flour until fully coated.

  3. 3

    Fry the Steak

    In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded steaks and fry for about 4-5 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 4

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash and dry the lettuce. Slice the tomato and red onion into thin slices.

  2. 5

    Toast the Bread

    Toast the jalapeño bread slices until golden brown and crispy.

  3. 6

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On one slice of toasted jalapeño bread, spread a layer of chipotle aioli. Add a piece of chicken fried steak, followed by slices of tomato, red onion, and a handful of lettuce. Top with another slice of bread.

French Fries

  1. 7

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and cut the potatoes into thin strips to make fries.

  2. 8

    Fry the Potatoes

    In a large pot, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the potato strips in batches, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels, sprinkling with salt immediately.
