CHICKEN FRIED HAMBURGER MEAT



Chicken Fried Hamburger Meat image

Forget the expensive chicken fried steak, use hamburger meat. This is a wonderful recipe! I use the same ingredients, that I use to make chicken fried steak.

Provided by sprkplug77

Categories     Meat

Time 15m

Yield 3-4 patties, 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 -2 lb hamburger meat
1 -3 egg
1 pinch salt
1 pinch pepper
2 -4 cups flour
2 tablespoons oil

Steps:

  • Put the 2 tbsp of oil in frying pan, and heat it up on medium heat.
  • In a medium bowl mix the eggs salt and pepper, set aside.
  • On a large plate make an even layer of the flour, set aside.
  • I formed the hamburger meat into patties a little bigger then usual, about the size of a chicken fried steak, and made them as thin as possible.
  • Then I put the pattie in the egg mixture. Let it soak a little, if you don't the meat will fall apart easy.
  • Then I placed the pattie in the flour and coat both sides very well. Now this is my preference, I like to double dip my meat, now if you do that you need to be careful the hamburger meat doesn't fall apart.
  • After I coat the pattie I put it in the frying pan. I usually let mine fry about 5 mins on each side ( I like them very dark and crispy).
  • Then serve on a piece of bread and peppered gravy or with your favorite sides.
