Chicken Fried Steak with Milk Gravy, adapted from the Pioneer Woman

The Pioneer Woman Cooks, published her first cookbook in November 2009. I saw her recipe for Chicken Fried Steak which is really battered cube beef steak), and decided to try and make it for my husband. This Chicken Fried Steak is one of his favorite "manly" dinners, so I wanted to surprise him. I adapted her recipe, a bit, by using buttermilk, and adding a few other ingredients that would help the crust to become very crispy and non-greasy. It was super simple to make, and now we don't have to go to a restaurant to enjoy this meal. No, it's not low-fat, but we can treat ourselves every so often, right?

I'll show you how to make this on my food blog at: http://foodiewife-kitchen.blogspot.com/2010/04/for-my-husband-chicken-fried-steak-with.html
