Chicken Fried Steak


Chicken Fried Steak is a great Sunday dinner.  It is crunchy and has a wonderful flavor.  The recipe is easy and I baked it instead of frying it which makes it a little healthier.
 
 

 

 

Chicken Fried Steak

 
 

 

Pre Heat oven to 350 degrees.

 

I started by cutting up a sirloin round steak into portions about the size of you palm.  I then took a mallet and pounded out the steaks on both sides.  I seasoned them and set them aside until I was ready to coat them.

 

I used one bowl for an egg wash which had in it 2 eggs, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and hot sauce.  

 


The second bowl had flour, corn flakes, Cajun seasoning, chipotle seasoning, garlic powder, paprika, Italian seasoning, sriracha seasoning, and salt.  A few shakes of each will work.

 


I took the steak and put it into the egg wash then in the flour corn flake mixture until it is coated completely.  I sprayed the bottom of a glass bake dish with nonstick spray and put the steaks in the dish along with a few pats of butter around the steaks. 
 
 
 
 
They went into the oven for 35-45 minutes.  The inner temperature of the steak should be 140 – 160 degrees. 

 


 

 

Gravy

 

While the chicken fried steaks are cooking I made up some gravy for them.  I took some sliced mushrooms, a garlic clove, sliced onions, Worcestershire sauce, steak sauce, and butter.  Cooked them  on low heat until the onion is translucent. 
 
 
 
 I then added 2 tsp at a time of Wondra flour and stirred until it absorbed all the butter and juice.  I then put in ½ cup of half and half.  Stir that until it is smooth.  When that comes to a boil I turned down and let cook for a few minutes.   After a few minutes it will start to thicken and if not I added another spoonful until it was as thick as I needed.  If it is too thick you will need to add some more half and half.

 


 

Let the chicken fried steak cool for a few minutes before serving when it comes out of the oven.  Top with Gravy and enjoy.
