Chicken Fried Steak Parmesan Recipes

THE BEST CHICKEN FRIED STEAK

Steps:

• Pound the steaks to about 1/4-inch thickness. Place 2 cups of flour in a shallow bowl. Stir together the baking powder, baking soda, pepper, and salt in a separate shallow bowl; stir in the buttermilk, egg, Tabasco Sauce, and garlic. Dredge each steak first in the flour, then in the batter, and again in the flour. Pat the flour onto the surface of each steak so they are completely coated with dry flour.
• Heat the shortening in a deep cast-iron skillet to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Fry the steaks until evenly golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Place fried steaks on a plate with paper towels to drain. Drain the fat from the skillet, reserving 1/4 cup of the liquid and as much of the solid remnants as possible.
• Return the skillet to medium-low heat with the reserved oil. Whisk the remaining flour into the oil. Scrape the bottom of the pan with a spatula to release solids into the gravy. Stir in the milk, raise the heat to medium, and bring the gravy to a simmer, cook until thick, 6 to 7 minutes. Season with kosher salt and pepper. Spoon the gravy over the steaks to serve.

PARMESAN CHICKEN FRIED STEAK

Steps:

• Combine the flour, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper in a shallow dish. Place the milk in another shallow dish. In a third dish, combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, and oregano. Heat the oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat. Pound the steak thin with a meat mallet. Dip each piece first in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess. Then dip in the milk and coat completely, letting excess drip off. Finally, coat the steaks in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently so the crumbs adhere. Add the steaks to the hot skillet and cook for 10-15 minutes or until tender, turning to cook on both sides as needed. Set the chicken fried steaks aside on paper toweling. For the gravy: In the same skillet, melt the butter. When melted, whisk in the flour and cook, stirring constantly, until the flour has just started to brown. While stirring, slowly add the milk. Add the salt and pepper and cook, stirring frequently, until the gravy has thickened. Adjust the seasoning as needed. Serve the gravy over the chicken fried steaks.

SOUTHERN FRIED CHICKEN PARMESAN

Steps:

• Whisk together the buttermilk, red pepper flakes and 1 tablespoon salt in a large bowl. Add the chicken, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours up to overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with a cooling rack. Add enough vegetable oil to a large Dutch oven or pot, fitted with a deep fry thermometer, so that it is filled a little less than halfway. Heat over medium heat until 350 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, bring another large pot of salted water to a boil. Whisk together the flour, Italian seasoning, 2 teaspoons salt and 2 teaspoons pepper in a large bowl.
• Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, one piece at a time, letting the excess drip off and drop into the flour. Rotate and toss chicken in the flour until completely coated. Add the breaded chicken to the oil in batches of 2 to 3 pieces. Fry until light golden brown on all sides, 3 to 4 minutes per side, then remove to the prepared rack. Repeat with the remaining chicken. Top each piece of chicken with 2 tablespoons of the sauce, a slice of mozzarella and some Parmesan. Bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the internal temperature of the chicken is 165 degrees F, about 25 minutes.

CHEESY CHICKEN FRIED STEAK

Steps:

• First let explain that I usually do not measure ingredients, thus the lack of exact measurements.
• Make the cheese cracker crumbs out of your favorite cheese crackers.
• Do not use regular cracker because there is a huge taste difference.
• Season the cutlets with garlic salt and pepper.
• I use a Parmesan cheese container (like they have at your favorite italian restaurant) to sprinkle flour onto my meat.
• Sprinkle meat with flour.
• Dip the cutlets into the egg and then into the cracker crumbs.
• Place the breaded cutlets on a platter and let rest in the refridgerator for 15 minutes or longer.

• If your in a hurry you can skip this step just make sure the meat is cooked on one side before turning or you will loose the breading.
• Fry cutlet in oil until golden brown.
• Place on a paper lined platter, and keep warm until ready to serve.
• Heat gravy with mushrooms.
