Chicken Fried Steak


This recipe came from Alton Brown.  It is one of my Husband's favorite dishes!  It takes a bit of time to prep, but it is well worth it.  

I start with a package of Veal Top Side from Bambis.  I've bought something similar at Fantu & it worked just as well.


Lay the pieces out separately.  Mix together 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of pepper.  Sprinkle it on both sides of the meat. Dredge the meat in 3/4 Cup of flour.  Using a fork, poke lots of holes in the meat on both sides.



I usually cover the meat at this time and let it sit in the fridge until I'm ready to cook it (however, you don't have to let it sit at this time).  Dredge the meat in 1 Cup of flour, then in 3 eggs (beaten) and then in 1 Cup of flour.  Move the meat to a wire rack and let it rest for 10-15 minutes.


Cover the bottom of a frying pan with a thin layer of oil.  Heat the oil a little before adding the meat.  Cook the meat 4 minutes on each side.  When done, place the steaks on a wire rack in a 250 degree oven.  Serve with cream gravy.  YUM!!
