Ahhh yes 😌 Salisbury steak—classic comfort food: juicy beef patties smothered in rich mushroom gravy. Let’s make it the way it deserves.
🥩 Salisbury Steak with Mushroom Gravy
Ingredients
For the patties:
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20 for juiciness)
- ½ cup breadcrumbs
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp milk
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- Salt & pepper to taste
For the gravy:
- 2 tbsp butter or oil
- 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
- 2 tbsp flour
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- Salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- Mix patties: Combine beef, breadcrumbs, egg, milk, onion, Worcestershire, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Form into 4 oval-shaped patties.
- Brown patties: Heat a skillet over medium heat with a little oil. Brown patties 3–4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
- Make gravy: In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté mushrooms until tender. Sprinkle flour over mushrooms and cook 1–2 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Add liquid: Slowly whisk in beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Simmer until thickened.
- Simmer patties: Return patties to skillet, cover, and simmer 15–20 minutes until fully cooked and flavors meld.
- Serve: Spoon mushroom gravy over patties.
🔥 Pro Tips
- Use 80/20 beef—leaner meat dries out.
- Don’t skip browning—it adds flavor.
- Add a splash of cream or sour cream to the gravy for extra richness.
- Serve with mashed potatoes or buttered noodles for ultimate comfort.
