Country Fried Steak Venison Recipe

buttermilk

🥗Healthier: low-fat yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + vinegar

Low-fat yogurt reduces calories while providing tanginess.

beef steak

🥗Healthier: chicken breast

💰Cheaper: pork cutlets

Chicken breast is lower in fat and pork cutlets are often less expensive.

gravy

🥗Healthier: mushroom sauce

💰Cheaper: canned gravy

Mushroom sauce is lighter and adds flavor, while canned gravy is budget-friendly.

Pound the venison steak with a meat mallet or rolling pin until about 1/4 inch thick.

Season both sides of the steak with seasoned flour (kernel flour).

Prepare the breading mix by combining panko breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese in a 50/50 ratio.

Crack an egg into a bowl and beat it until mixed.

Dip the venison fillet into the egg, ensuring it's well coated, and drain off the excess.

Coat the egg-soaked fillet in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing to ensure a good coating.

Heat cooking oil in a skillet until hot enough that a piece of flour sizzles when added.

Fry the coated fillet for 1 minute on each side until golden brown.

Remove the steak from the skillet and drain on paper towels.
