Another Chicken Fried Steak

I made this delicious "down-home" recipe last night and it was popular! I didn't have the chicken broth & heavy cream on hand, but used Campbell's cream of chicken soup instead, made with milk; adding the parsley etc to that. This is a great way to use steak, (living on a cattle ranch I'm always looking for different ways to use beef) Thanks for the great recipe! Andrea
