National Chicken Fried Steak Day

National Chicken Fried Steak Day is on October 26th in the United States.

Chicken fried steak, which may also be known as country-fried steak, is a dish that is often associated with Southern cuisine. The dish may sound odd to those unfamiliar with it; it may sound even odder when it's discovered that it doesn't use chicken.

This is a breaded cutlet dish, similar to the Wiener schnitzel, which consists of steak, commonly cube steak, that is coated with seasoned flour and pan-fried. The technique used for cooking it is commonly associated with chicken, which is where the name comes from; it isn't fried with chicken, but like chicken.
