Chicken-Fried Hamburger

Adapted from a recipe by OmegaJasmine at allrecipes.com. Hamburger patties are given the chicken-fried steak treatment. Nutrition information provided includes the full amount of oil, even though most of it is left behind, and is therefore unreliable.

• Ready In: 55 mins
• Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 1  lb  90% lean ground beef
• 2  teaspoons  chopped fresh parsley
• 1  tablespoon chili powder
• 1  teaspoon salt
• 1  egg
• 2  cups  crushed  saltine crackers or 2  cups  breadcrumbs, divided
• 1⁄2 cup  oil (for frying)

Directions

1. In a medium bowl, mix together the ground beef, parsley, chili powder, salt, egg, and 1 cup of crushed saltine crackers. Form into patties. Coat patties with remaining cracker crumbs, and place them on a plate. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
2. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry patties for about 7 minutes per side, or until the centers are well done and the outside is golden brown.
