Cracker Barrel Chicken Fried Steak Recipe
One key trick to getting that perfect golden brown coating is to set up a breading station with a mix of seasoned flour, cayenne pepper, and crushed saltine crackers.Seasoning the cube steaks with salt and pepper adds an extra layer of flavor that I absolutely love.I always recommend using a cast iron skillet for even cooking and that authentic crispy texture.
Ingredients
- 1 lb Cube Steak
- 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 2 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black Pepper
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1 tsp Onion Powder
- 2 cups Buttermilk
- 2 Eggs
- 1/4 cup Vegetable Oil
Instructions
- Begin by patting the cube steaks dry with paper towels.
- Then season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
- In a shallow dish, whisk together the flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
- In another dish, combine buttermilk and eggs to make a wet mixture.
- Dip each steak into the flour mixture, then into the buttermilk mixture, and back into the flour.
- Make sure each steak is fully coated.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Once hot, carefully place the coated steaks into the oil and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- Remove the steaks from the skillet and place them on a wire rack or paper towels to drain excess oil.
