Alex's Chicken Fried Steak

I'm not entirely sure why this is called chicken fried steak when it has absolutely nothing to do with chicken of any sort, but I can say this. It is absolutely freaking delicious and I highly recommend it. Alex made this and his stuffed potatoes tonight to give me a night off cooking (isn't he sweet).

To start with, you will need 3 bowls.

Bowl one:
1/4 cup flour

Bowl two:
4 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons water
1 egg
Whip these ingredients together.

Bowl three:
1/4 cup bread crumbs
Pinch mustard powder
Pinch sage
Pinch oregano
Pinch garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste

He used two 1/4 inch thick sirloin steaks (they were about 6 oz each).

Dip steak in flour. Then dip it in the egg mixture. Finally, dip it in the bread crumb mixture. Fry on medium-high heat for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes on each side.

Optionally, if you want the steak to really fall apart when you eat it, tenderize it first. And of course, if you have more steak, you may need more of the ingredients.
