Time for some steak :)

Are you a chicken lover like me? Then you have come to the right place because i am going to share with you guys this recipe on how to make chicken fried steak that i found online! Honestly i never liked eating chicken steaks at restaurants because most of them were disappointing :( Which was why i went on a search for a recipe so that i can do a chicken steak to my liking and that's when i found this gem of a recipe!! And the best part is that it takes only 40 mins to make which is shorter than the time you have to wait to get into some popular restaurants. So here goes the recipe..

Ingredients : 1/2 cup vegetable oil

                    6 (4-ounces each) cube steaks

                   Salt and freshly ground black pepper

                  1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

                  1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

                  1/4 teaspoon paprika

                  4 eggs, beaten

                  1 1/2 cups whole milk

                  Chopped parsley leaves, for garnish

How to do :  Heat a medium-high skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil.

Cook's Note: Oil is heated when you drop a little flour in and the oil spits.

Pound out the cube steaks with a meat mallet until they are 1/4 to 1/2-inches thick. Salt and pepper both sides. Mix the flour, cayenne and paprika together in a bowl. Beat the eggs in another bowl. Dredge the steaks through the flour, then egg mixture, then through the flour again.

Place the steak carefully in the pan as the oil will splatter. Cook until golden brown, about 4 to 6 minutes on each side. When finished, place on a sheet tray lined with paper towels, hold in a warm oven and repeat the procedure with the other pieces of steak.

When all steaks have been cooked off, pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the cooking oil and lower heat. Add 3 tablespoons of the leftover flour mixture to the oil and whisk to create a paste.

Cook until golden, about 1 minute. Gradually add the milk to the flour and oil mixture while whisking together. Season the gravy with salt and pepper, to taste.

Let cook until thickened; about 10 minutes. Pour gravy over the steak to finish and garnish with parsley.

Note: It can be hard to find cube steaks in Chennai so what did was , i bought minced chicken meat and made shaped it into a patty form of half a inch thickness.

Doesn’t it look really yummy???? And trust me it tasted as good as it looks so i really hope you guys will try out this recipe like i did!!!
