One day I had lunch out with my husband. Chicken fried steak was their special of the day. I thought to myself that I need to figure out how to make this at home. My fried steak is crunchy and the gravy is over the top. It reminds me of the milk gravy my mom made when she fried chicken. Little crunchy breading bits speckled throughout.
