Delicious Southern Chicken Fried Steak

Instructions

Season cubed steak lightly with salt and pepper.

Place ½ cup flour on a plate.

Mix remaining ½ cup flour, Saltine crumbs, seasoned salt, and cayenne pepper in a shallow bowl.

Whisk together eggs and ⅓ cup milk in another shallow bowl.

Dredge cubed steak in flour, dip in egg mixture, and then coat with Saltine mixture.

Heat about ½-inch oil in a large pan (preferably cast iron) over medium heat.

Cook steak in 2 batches for about 3 minutes per side. Remove steak to a paper towel-lined plate.

Pour oil that is left in pan through a fine-meshed sieve into a heat-proof bowl. Measure out ¼ cup and return it to pan.

Add flour to pan and cook over medium heat for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in milk and cook until thick. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
