A recipe as old as the hills Chicken fried steak (CFS) is the classic example of an inexpensive regional folk food utilized by working class folks and generally caterorized as comfort food. The precise origins of the dish are unclear, but many sources attribute its development to German and Austrian immigrants to Texas in the 19th century, who brought recipes for Wiener Schnitzel from Europe to the USA. The Virginia Housewife, published in 1838 by Mary Randolph, has a recipe for veal cutlets that is one of the earliest recipes for a food like chicken fried steak.
