Make classic Salisbury steak patties and cover them in a simple, rich mushroom gravy. This recipe is great for a weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lb ground beef (80/20 recommended)
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 8 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, chopped onion, egg, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix gently with your hands until just combined; do not overmix.
  2. Form the mixture into 4 equal oval-shaped patties, about 3/4 inch thick.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Brown the patties for 3 to 4 minutes per side until nicely seared. Remove the patties from the skillet and set them aside.
  4. Add the butter to the same skillet. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they soften and brown, about 5 minutes.
  5. Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and stir constantly for 1 minute to cook out the raw flour taste.
  6. Slowly whisk in the beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Stir in the thyme and garlic powder. Bring the gravy to a simmer.
  7. Return the browned patties to the skillet, nestling them into the gravy. Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the patties are cooked through.
  8. Serve the Salisbury steaks hot, spooning the mushroom gravy over each patty. This pairs well with mashed potatoes or rice.

Notes

  • For meal prep, you can cook the patties and gravy separately and store them in airtight containers for up to 3 days.
  • If you prefer a smoother gravy, strain the gravy after simmering to remove the mushroom pieces.
  • You can substitute white or yellow mushrooms for cremini if needed.
