ROUTE 66 CHICKEN FRIED STEAK SANDWICH

Route 66 Chicken Fried Steak Sandwich image

When I moved to Oklahoma from Florida, I learned "Okies" love their chicken fry. In fact, if you ask someone who has ever traveled old Route 66 from Miami (Okies pronounce this My-am-uh) to the town of Texola what's the worst food you can eat they'll likely say "chicken fried steak". The best thing you can eat on Route 66? That would also be chicken fried steak. As contradictory as it may seem it's true! I tried to lighten this dish up by air frying, but feel free to grab a cast iron skillet and cook these steaks up too!

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 20

Ingredients

1 pound Beef, round, full cut, separable lean and fat, trimmed to 1/4" fat, choice, raw
½ cup milk
½ cup Soda, Coca Cola, Coke-Can/Bottle CC
1 tablespoon steak sauce (such as A1®)
¾ cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
½ teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon granulated onion
½ teaspoon granulated garlic
1 large egg
¾ cup buttermilk
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
nonstick cooking spray
2 medium hamburger buns, split, toasted
2 leaves lettuce, or as needed
2 slices tomato, or to taste
2 slices pickles
2 teaspoons mayonnaise, or to taste

Steps:

Combine milk, cola, and steak sauce in a large resealable dish or bag and add the tenderized round steak. Marinate for 30 minutes, or overnight.
Combine flour, salt, pepper, paprika, granulated onion, and granulated garlic for the chicken fry breading in a shallow dish. Whip egg in a second shallow dish until light and frothy for the chicken dip. Add buttermilk, salt, and pepper.
Drain steaks from the steak marinade and dredge in chicken fry mixture, shaking off excess. Then dredge in the chicken dip mixture, allow excess to drip off. Dredge in the chicken fry mixture again, shaking off excess. Place steaks on a sheet pan and press any remaining flour mixture onto the steaks. Let stand for 10 minutes.
Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Place steaks in the air fryer basket. Lightly coat with vegetable oil spray.
Air fry for 4 minutes. Carefully turn steaks and coat the other side with vegetable oil spray. Air-fry for another 4 minutes. Serve each steak on a toasted bun, topped with lettuce, tomato, pickles, and mayonnaise.
