directions

For the chicken fried steaks:

1. Dredge the steaks in the mixture of the flour, cornstarch, baking powder and cajun seasoning flour and dip in the mixture of the buttermilk and egg before dredging in the flour mixture a second time.
2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat with 1/4 inch of oil in the bottom.
3. Fry the steaks in the oil, one at a time, until lightly golden brown, about 2 minutes per side, before setting aside on a rack and continuing on with the remaining steaks.

For the gravy:

4. Drain off all but 3 tablespoons of the cooking oil, return to medium heat, sprinkle in the flour and cook until it turns a deep golden brown, about 3-5 minutes.
5. Add the milk, bring to a simmer and cook until the gravy thickens, about 3-5 minutes, before seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
