Chicken fried steak, also known as country fried steak, is a classic Southern comfort food dish that features a tenderized and breaded steak cutlet served with creamy gravy. Here’s a description of chicken fried steak:
Chicken fried steak is a delightful homage to Southern culinary traditions, offering a hearty and indulgent meal that combines elements of both steak and fried chicken. The dish typically starts with a tenderized steak cutlet, often taken from a beef round or cube steak. The steak is pounded or mechanically tenderized to break down the muscle fibers and create a more tender texture.
The preparation process involves a series of steps:
- Tenderization: The steak cutlet is first tenderized by pounding it with a meat mallet or running it through a mechanical tenderizer. This not only makes the meat more tender but also creates a thinner and larger surface area.
- Seasoning: The steak is seasoned with salt and pepper for basic flavoring, but additional seasonings can be added according to personal taste, such as garlic powder, paprika, or cayenne pepper.
- Dredging: The seasoned steak is then dredged in a mixture of all-purpose flour and sometimes other seasonings. This flour coating helps create a crispy, golden crust when fried.
- Breading: After dredging, the steak is dipped in a mixture of beaten eggs and milk to create a binder for the next layer of flour. This double coating results in a thicker and crunchier crust.
- Frying: The steak is fried in a skillet or deep fryer with hot oil until it becomes crispy and golden brown. The frying process cooks the steak to perfection and gives it a satisfying crunch.
- Gravy: Chicken fried steak is traditionally served with a creamy white gravy made from pan drippings, flour, milk, and seasonings. The gravy is cooked until it thickens and becomes a rich, savory sauce.
The finished chicken fried steak is typically served hot, with a generous ladle of creamy gravy drizzled over the top. It’s often accompanied by classic Southern sides like mashed potatoes, green beans, or biscuits. The contrast between the crispy, well-seasoned exterior and the tender, juicy interior of the steak, combined with the creamy gravy, makes chicken fried steak a beloved comfort food that’s cherished across the Southern United States.
