Mock Chicken Fried Steak

Family loved it! I used panko instead of crackers. I also added chopped fresh garlic, a little fresh dried basil and oregano to the panko. I omitted the parsley but still used the chili powder. Served with beef gravy. Will be making this again!

EDIT: 8/6/24 This is better than I remembered. So easy to put together and less mess than a battered meat. I only had Ritz crackers, but they worked just fine. I cooked these for 5.5 minutes per side and they were well done. The outside was super crispy and this was really good with a basic milk/chicken broth gravy ladled over the top. 5 stars this time for the ease of prep, texture, and flavor.original review 2010***This was a great way to stretch a pound of ground beef. My family loved this and it was very similar in texture and taste to the type of CFS you get from a frozen product. Personally I wasn't impressed, but it was okay. I would eat this again. Thanks for a great way to serve up boring ground beef.

The family loved this! Even our 3 year old! It's definitely a keeper. My husband said "It will keep husbands happy. That's man food!" lol. I didn't use the chili powder but rather some onion powder, garlic powder, and pepper instead.
