Nothing says Southern Cuisine like Chicken Fried Steak. My Mom made one of the best chicken fried steaks around. But she never was one for measurements. It was always a little bit of this, a pinch of that. So I was on my own to figure out her secret that made hers better than most others I had tasted. The key is in the technique and the batter. Many recipes require the use of 2-3 eggs. This recipe does not. Which makes for a lighter textured crust full of flavor. This is my own recipe that I came up with. I've been making this recipe for over 25 years. It is a favorite of family and friends.
