Description
A classic Salisbury steak recipe featuring ground beef patties topped with rich mushroom-onion gravy, perfect for family gatherings or comforting dinners.
Ingredients
- 1 pound of ground beef
- 1/4 cup of breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons of Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon of onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of garlic salt
- 1/2 teaspoon of mustard powder
- 1/4 teaspoon of kosher salt
- Lots of fresh ground black pepper (to taste)
- 1 tablespoon of cooking oil (for searing beef patties)
- 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms
- 1 medium sliced onion
- 3 tablespoons of butter
- 2 cloves of minced or crushed garlic
- 1/4-1/2 cup of flour (depending on how thick you like your gravy)
- 3 cups of broth (beef, chicken, or vegetable)
- Kosher salt (to taste)
- Black pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix together the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, garlic salt, mustard powder, kosher salt, and black pepper. Ensure all ingredients blend well.
- Shape the mixture into four oval patties, ensuring they hold their form.
- Heat a large pan over medium-high heat and add cooking oil. Sear each patty for about a minute on each side until browned. Remove the patties from the pan.
- In the same pan, add the sliced mushrooms and onions to the beef juices. Cook for about 10 minutes or until the onions turn golden and the excess mushroom liquid evaporates.
- Add butter and minced garlic to the pan, cooking for about one minute until fragrant.
- Stir in the flour, ensuring there are no lumps, then whisk in about 1/2 to 1 cup of broth until combined.
- Increase the heat to high and slowly pour in the remaining broth, whisking until well combined. Season with kosher salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste.
- Once the gravy simmers, reduce the heat to low. Stir occasionally and let it thicken for about 5-10 minutes.
- Return the Salisbury steak patties to the gravy and ensure they cook to your preferred doneness. This usually takes about 5-10 minutes.
- Serve the steaks topped with the rich mushroom-onion gravy over rice, pasta, or mashed potatoes.
Notes
For a thicker gravy, adjust the amount of flour according to preference. Serve over mashed potatoes or pasta for a delightful meal.
