Chicken fried steak

Chicken fried steak is a breaded cutlet dish consisting of a piece of steak coated with seasoned flour and pan-fried. It is associated with Southern cuisine. The dish gets its name from the fact that the steak is cooked in oil that has already been used to fry chicken. Country fried steak is different in that it can be cooked with any kind of oil. Generally, a 'chicken fried' recipe is an authentic Southern U.S. recipe, while 'country fried' is an imitation.
