Made this tonight for dinner, and my husband LOVED it! I also made poor man's gravy and mashed potatoes to go with the steak. Nice comfort food for the winter months!

This was fabulous! I made it for my husband & my father (who doesn't get to eat southern cooking very often). Bith of them raved about it. I paired it with mashed potatoes & fried ocra.

I've tried several Chicken Fried Steak recipes and this is a good one! Don't forget to double dip in your eggs and flour. I added some garlic powder and a pinch of cayenne pepper to the flour for a little pow. Mashed potatos and gravy are a must with this (and corn for us). Tonight I used a can of cream of mushroom soup for my quickie gravy. Cooked in one of my trusty cast iron skillets made this a lip smacker with no leftovers. Thank you!

I used cubed steak rather then veal. I also used a electric skillet so I could control the temp better. I set it to 350 and didn't put the steaks in till it was at that temp. I cooked them about 10 mins on each side. I didn't have any problems with the coating falling off. Served with mashed potatoes and a veg...

I LIKED THIS RECIPE VERY MUCH. IT DIDN'T LEAVE THE MEAT ALL DRIED OUT OR TOUGH LIKE SOME OTHER RECIPES AND METHODS OF COOKING STEAK.

This is not traditional southern chicken fried steak--it's more like wiener schnizel and would be good with fresh lemon juice squeezed on after cooking. Traditional chicken fried steak uses top round or bottom round steak, sometimes cube steaks, and is always served with cream gravy, mashed potatoes or rice, and turnip greens (I prefer fresh spinach cooked). Some people used a combination of beef broth and milk in the cream gravy, but the traditional cream gravy uses only milk and is well peppered and salted.

This is SO good! I used beef cubed steak in lieu of veal and added garlic powder and paprika. What a great recipe! I made gravy, too, and it was perfect with buttery mashed potatoes.

Great tasting recipe! Too bad it doesn't look the same. I made this with cubed beef steaks and my own blend of seasonings including garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. I made a cream gravy on the side. My husband and I both enjoyed this dish, but my only complaint would be that it didn't brown beautifully at all. It was a ruddy instead of golden brown. Could it be the egg?

Virginia, this is a wonderful recipe for sure. My daughter, her boyfriend and his parents were headed back from Six Flags last night and while on the phone I asked my daughter what "Arnie" wanted for dinner Sunday night. He proclaimed "Chicken Fried Steak"! I've made it before, but wanted to find a different recipe and I'm so glad I did. It was a huge hit, for he's the pickiest twenty year old I've ever met. In my flour mixture I used garlic and onion powders, paprika, salt and pepper and a bit of cayenne. If it wasn't for the fact that he also requested fetticini alfredo (low fat dinner right?) I would have used some of the drippings to make a gravy. After coating the cube steaks I used for this dish, I let it sit for about ten minutes and had no problem with the breading falling off while frying. Thanks again Virginia for a great recipe!!

This was good. My husband loved it. I used cubed steaks instead and added a lil onion powder and garlic powder to the flour. I made sure my oil was hot before placing steak into it that way the coating stays put and doesn't come off. I'll be making this again in the future.
