How To make Cactus Chicken Fried Steak
6 6-oz Cubed Steaks
3 Eggs; Lg
1/2 c Water
2 c Unbleached Flour
1 qt Vegetable Oil; For Frying
2 1/2 c Milk
1 tb Instant Chicken Bouillon; OR
1 tb Chicken Base
3 tb Jalapeno Seasoning Salt
1 c Garlic Salt
3/4 c Celery Salt
1/4 c Salt
2 c Jalapeno Powder; *
1/2 c New Mexico Chile Powder; *
~
JALAPENO SEASONING SALT:
* Both of these items should be available at grocery and specialty stores that handle Mexican foods. Add the Jalapeno seasoning salt to the flour and mix well. Dip each steak into the seasoned flour, then dip into the egg wash, (mix the eggs and water in a separate bowl for the egg wash), and dip the meat back into the seasoned flour, coating each steak well. Heat the vegetable oil to about 350 degrees F. in a large skillet. Oil should be deep enough to cover the steaks. Fry the coated steaks until golden brown, then drain them on paper towels and put on a heated platter that is tented with foil. Pour off all but 2 tbls of the oil and the drippings. Add 3 Tbls of the leftover seasoned flour. Mix well and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the oil and flour are golden brown. Remove from the heat and add the milk and chicken bouillon or chicken base. Return to the heat and bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until the gravy thickens. Serve spooned over the steaks.

KIM’S TIPS
☀️ I was told by the many people on TikTok who were ex-Cactus Club employees that the rub is a dry rub, and then garlic butter is added later. I add in all things at once and I think it’s better because not only is it easier (less steps) but it creates a really nice blackened layer.
☀️ I’ve had this a few at the Cactus Club and usually this is made with a chicken breast. I prefer chicken thigh as it’s far less dry but chicken breast works well too as long as it comes with the skin.
☀️ If you have time, the Creole Butter is easiest made if you room temperature butter. I am lazy and have no patience for anything so I use a combined mix of melted and cold better. If your butter gets too soft, pop it in the fridge for 10 minutes and it will be PERFECT.
Let me know if you will be trying this one out and follow @heykimletseat for more!
