Why kill innocent chickens for mouth-pleasure tho
You can tell someone is American when they call milky flour “gravy”
White gravy, often flavored with chicken stock and herbs, sometimes pepper, is particularly popular in the south, and it slaps. Its the same kind of gravy you might have with biscuits and gravy (these ‘biscuits’ being closer to scones than hard shortbread or tea biscuits) To use a brown gravy in the same scenario would be a travesty, thats mainly reserved for roasted red meats.
This is “gravy” in the same way American squirt cheese is “cheese” in that certain people will call it that. But its categorically a completely different thing.
It’s a bechamel, friend. You are fool who doesn’t understand food. You probably boil everything you don’t microwave.
Can you share the recipe?
No real recipe. I dry-brined some boneless breasts overnight. Then did a traditional flour, egg, flour dredge and fried in a pan with a little oil. I added some hot sauce to the egg and some spices to the last flour stage. Cheers!
I still don’t understand why people pour gravy or sauce over fried meat. Doesn’t it get soggy?
It sort of does but it’s not really crispness you’re going for in a chicken fried steak (or chicken). It’s just downright hearty and rich and so dang good. Have you had it before?
I haven’t tried chicken fried steak yet. But when I make Schnitzel or Backhendl crispiness is key. Whether or not pouring sauce over fried meat is ok seems to be a regional issue here in the German-speaking parts of the world. There are Reddit and Lemmy communities collecting “crimes” against Schnitzel (r/schnitzelverbrechen).

You stop your filthy lies right this instant.
