About Chickenfriedsteaks

Chicken fried steak, a classic comfort food rooted in Southern U.S. cuisine, is a hearty dish inspired by German and Austrian schnitzels. It consists of a tenderized beef steak (usually round or cube steak) that's coated in seasoned flour, dipped in an egg wash, and fried to golden perfection. The crispy, flavorful crust encases the juicy steak and is often paired with creamy white gravy. While it’s indulgent and deeply satisfying, chicken fried steak is high in calories, fat, and sodium, making it best enjoyed in moderation. It does offer protein from the meat and some vitamins and minerals depending on the cut used. For a lighter version, some opt for oven-baking or air-frying instead of deep-frying and pair it with steamed vegetables or salads for balance. A quintessential Southern dish, chicken fried steak shines as a savory, nostalgic meal for comfort food enthusiasts.
