CHICKEN-FRIED STEAK
A comfort food classic recipe made better for you won't get much tastier than this version of chicken-fried steak. While the dish looks like fried chicken, it's actually steak coated with seasoned flour and breadcrumbs. And for even more decadence, we pan-fry the steaks in bacon drippings until crisp, then drizzle it with a rich onion gravy. Pounding the steak before coating it with the flour mixture, will ensure the steaks cook evenly and each bite is tender. Complete this cozy, homestyle meal by pairing the steaks with mashed cauliflower and steamed green beans. If you'd like to add a little spice, serve with your favorite hot sauce.
