How to Make Low Fat Chicken Fried Steak

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Place the cube steak between two sheets of plastic wrap. Using a meat mallet, gently pound the steak to 1/4 inch thickness.
  3. In a shallow dish, whisk together the flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
  4. Dredge each cube steak in the flour mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
  5. Place the coated steaks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  6. Bake for 25 minutes.
  7. Flip the steaks and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the juices run clear.
  8. While the steaks are baking, prepare your favorite gravy according to package directions (or make your own!).
  9. Serve the baked chicken fried steaks hot, topped with gravy.
