Chicken steak

2 servings

15 minutes

Chicken steak is a classic of American cuisine, combining simplicity of preparation and rich flavor. It originally emerged as an alternative to traditional beef steak, offering a more tender texture and lightness for the stomach. Fried chicken breasts seasoned with salt and pepper develop an appetizing golden crust, while added aromatic herbs—basil and oregano—infuse the dish with a refreshing Mediterranean touch. This dish pairs perfectly with sides of fresh vegetables, potatoes, or light sauces. Chicken steak is a versatile choice for a quick dinner or impressive lunch that leaves a feeling of satisfaction without heaviness. An ideal option for those who appreciate the balance of taste and health.
