Ingredients

What you'll need

  • 1 lb chicken-fried steak
  • a pinch unsalted butter
  • 4 oz garlic
  • 1/4 cup fresh thyme
  • 2 tbsp kosher salt
  • 1 cup coarse black pepper
  • 3 cloves olive oil
  • to taste flaky salt
Method

Step by step

  1. Pat the chicken-fried steak dry and season it well so it browns instead of steaming.
  2. Get your pan hot and render the aromatics until they smell sweet and toasty.
  3. Return the chicken-fried steak, add just enough liquid, and simmer until everything is tender.
  4. Taste, brighten with a squeeze of citrus, and plate while it is still hot.
