Marlboro Country Chicken Fried Steak (Country Fried)

Recipe #124909 | 20 min | 10 min prep | add private note

This is true southern cuisine, the flavors in this recipe are a little more complex than the basic chicken fried steak. Not being a real Texan I don't like mine with gravy, but it would be blasphemy not to post the gravy recipe as well. This recipe also works well for venison (first soak meat in milk to remove the gamey taste). Makes excellent sandwiches the next day (serve leftovers on texas toast). Storing this recipe on Zaar cause I couldn't find it last time I had a craving!

SERVES 6 , 2 cups gravy (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Fried Steaks

Cream Gravy

Directions

  1. 1
    Trim steak, cut into 6 to 8 smaller pieces and pound thin.
  2. 2
    Combine milk, green Tabasco sauce, and salt in one bowl. Add 1 cup of flour to a second bowl. Combine remaining flour, paprika, garlic, salt and pepper in a third bowl.
  3. 3
    Coat steak in first bowl of plain flour. Dip floured steak into milk mixture then coat with seasoned flour mixture. Set aside until all meat has been coated.
  4. 4
    Heat 1 to 2 inches of oil or fat in a heavy fry pan (a cast-iron skillet is most authentic ;).
  5. 5
    Fry steaks approximately 2 min per side until golden brown.
  6. 6
    Drain on paper towels, serve with cream gravy, mashed potatoes and biscuits.
  7. 7
    For the Cream Gravy: (try at your own risk, it did not turn out for me but I am a gravy novice so I might have done something wrong -- ).
  8. 8
    Pour off all but 6 tbsp of fat from the fry pan.
  9. 9
    Using the leftover seasoned flour first, add 6 tbsp flour and blend well.
  10. 10
    Gradually stir in milk.
  11. 11
    Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened, season with salt and pepper.
  12. 12
    Serve gravy over steaks (or on the side for Yankees!).

    I have been looking for a really good chicken fried steak recipe, as it is not popular here in the northeast. So I decided to try this one. Very delicious, close to what I remember. I even made a believer out of my SO, who had thought me crazy up until he tried it. I will definitely make this again. Thank you for a great recipe.

    I was searching for a new coating for FRIED CHICKEN; one that would stick to the chicken, had a tad bit of heat, thick, and crunchy. I'm from the south and like a hint of cayenne in my coating. Well, the evaporated milk/Tabasco duo made a nice combination that stuck to the chicken very nicely; not to mention the seasoned flour on top of it. Now, I did have concerns about it being too hot, but let me tell you, it was just right !! Mild and tasty. My thanks to MommyMakes for her submission. This is one fried chicken coating that I'll be using for many moons!!

    Ok lets just say...I'm a Georgia girl living in London. So when I started craving country fried steak I just had to make it for my London buddies...and they LOVED it!! I stuck to the recipe (I'd never made it without my mom!) but I did season the beef on half of it just to test (just the seasoning that was used in the seasoned flour) and I have to say that the seasoned half tasted a bit better. But just great and once it was battered it was quick to cook as well.
