The Ultimate Chicken Fried Steak

Frying chicken fried steak has typically not been my forte, but this recipe for the steak portion was well written and helped it to be more successful and yummy. My husband and I made happy plates 😁.

Delicious and was a hit in our home. Will definitely make again

It wasn’t crispy, the meat was bland and the gravy was awful despite following the directions.

Very good! I even made it with gluten free flour. I'm new to the gluten thing and it hasn't been fun, so this one was a win for me. Whole family loved it.

Really good, a lot of prep time but worth it. I would recommend that heat oven then turn off, use a baking sheet lined with paper towels and as soon as your steaks are cooked put immediately on cookie sheet in oven to keep crispy and warm, if you don't they will not stay crispy.

It really is flavorful, I used the flour from the coating mixture.

This will definitely take time to prep so I recommend allowing at least an hour and a half to two hours prep time. I make sure I have all the ingredients out, measured, and ready before I start anything else. I like to use a mix of flour and seasoned bread crumbs for the breading and I triple coat it (hubby and I both prefer it that way). For anyone that's salt sensitive, omit the salt. I don't pat my cube steaks dry. Instead, I use them as is (fresh bought) or place them on a cookie rack to slightly dry before breading them (I've never had any problems doing it this way). I don't use buttermilk, I use whole milk, and, for the tartness, I add sour cream to the milk/egg mixture. I was always told that a recipe is a guideline (in most cases) and you should mix up the seasonings/flavors to your own taste. Just make sure you keep the flour/baking powder/baking soda ratio the same. Enjoy!

We made this with eye of round steak. It really turned out nice, the steak was very tender. The flavour was great but I’d prefer it a bit more spicy, so next time I’ll adjust it. Also, it pays to follow the recipe instructions exactly.

Great recipe! Definitely allow for about 1.5 hours for prep to finish
