### What is Chicken Fried Steak?
Despite the name, **Chicken Fried Steak** doesn’t involve any chicken at all! The term “chicken fried” refers to the method of cooking—similar to how fried chicken is made. A tenderized beef steak is breaded, seasoned, and deep-fried to crispy perfection, then topped with a creamy, savory gravy made from the drippings left in the pan. It’s the perfect combination of crispy, juicy, and comforting, often served with mashed potatoes, collard greens, or a simple salad.
Here’s how to make this delicious Southern staple from scratch!
