TIBS CHICKEN FRIED STEAK

Submitted by Mr Tibs

"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."
