I hadn’t made this in years, and never really perfected it when I did. The buttermilk and rest time in the fridge made all the difference. Spices can easily adjusted to suit individual tastes. I agree, mashed potatoes and milk gravy are a must.

I only get chicken fried steak when I go to a “meat and three” when I am away. But I decided to give this a go and it was terrific. The coating was perfect – crisp and flavorful. And the gravy was outstanding. Yes, I made mashed potatoes. This is a winner.

Oh My! This was YUM. I had to improvise a bit, not having buttermilk I used milk soured with vinegar and not having Lemon Pepper, I used some garlic mixey thing that I had in the cupboard. But barring those two things, I followed the recipe and it came out amazing. A definite addition to the recipe box. Thank you.

Made this as part of breakfast this morning. Buttermilk and the fridge are what I have been missing all these years. Unfortunately, I did not make the gravy per the recipe. I will definitely try that next time. I did add a bit more of the spices. I sprinkled quite a bit on the meat. Actually, my four year old daughter did that part and I was worried she had gone WAY overboard. However, once the first batch got done I had to have a bite. I decided it needed more spices so I added more before putting in the skillet. YUM! Chicken Fried Steak is one of my favorite meals and now I can actually make it and really enjoy it. The batter stayed on which I have struggled with forever. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe.

I give three mits because:
I would like more spice–more garlic powder maybe/more lemon pepper? I thought the gravy was really good.
I’m not a fan of Crisco and frying is scary!
But it was a really great reason to break out the heavy dutch oven.
I also thought throwing it in the fridge helped!!!

I made this tonight for my cowboy, Patrick, and it was a winner! We live in NC and I have never eaten chicken fried steak before, so my opinion doesn’t really matter here. He said, and I quote, “this ain’t like any other chicken fried steak I’ve ever eaten. They’re usually really flat and really salty.” He thought it was yummy! However, I told him I would not be making this again for at least another 6 months because it’s just way too fattening!

Really tasty! The flour/buttermilk and egg/flour/fridge method really helped the breading stay on! Breading was flavorful and so was gravy.
