Chicken-Fried Steak

Britt is from Texas.  She loves Chicken-Fried Steak.  When she orders it in a restaurant I can feel my own arteries clogging.  To me it is akin to deep fat frying an oreo.  Gross. 

With that said, I made it a mission of mine to make it at home...and healthier.  Not a task I thought I would spend much time on because I wasn't counting on success....   but I thought I'd give it a go.

I hit it out of the park.

Thank you Eating Well magazine!!!  Tonight was the second time I've made it.  The last time was a few weeks ago and it earned rave reviews... but I knew I could do better.  And tonight... I did! .I think Britt was astonished....and I felt SO proud.  My gravy was amazing...which I NEVER have luck with... I was giddy with happiness about this meal  :)

I never cared whether I ate this sort of dish ever in my life... but with this recipe I have discovered that it isn't all bad... and can be a healthy way to get a favorite comfort food!  To save time I serve ours with the pre-made mashed potatoes and a vegetable...

Chicken-Fried Steak


Enjoy!!
