Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef (80/20 for juiciness)
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 1 cup cremini or baby bella mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon oil (vegetable or olive oil)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 cup breadcrumbs
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Optional Variations

  • Ground turkey or chicken (as a leaner meat alternative)
  • Gluten-free breadcrumbs and cornstarch instead of flour
  • Grated carrots or finely chopped bell peppers for extra veggies
  • Splash of cream or sour cream for creamy mushroom gravy
  • Cayenne pepper or smoked paprika for a spicy kick

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Patties: In a large bowl, combine ground beef, finely chopped onion, egg, breadcrumbs, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix gently just until combined to avoid tough patties, then shape the mixture into evenly sized oval patties to ensure even cooking and tenderness.
  2. Brown the Patties: Heat oil and butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the patties on each side until golden brown but not fully cooked through, then remove them to a plate. This step locks in flavor and texture.
  3. Sauté Mushrooms and Onions: In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms and diced onions. Cook until softened and caramelized, which brings out natural sweetness key to a luscious mushroom gravy.
  4. Make the Gravy: Sprinkle flour over the mushroom and onion mixture, stirring constantly to cook out the raw flour taste. Slowly whisk in the beef broth and bring it to a simmer, stirring until the gravy thickens to a glossy consistency.
  5. Simmer Patties in Gravy: Return the browned patties to the skillet, nestling them into the mushroom gravy. Cover and simmer gently for 10-15 minutes, allowing patties to cook through and absorb the rich flavors.
  6. Serve Hot: When the patties are tender and the gravy has thickened further, plate the Salisbury steaks and spoon the mushroom gravy over them. Garnish as desired and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the meat mixture to keep patties tender.
  • Use a heavy skillet such as cast iron for better searing and even heat.
  • Searing patties before simmering enhances caramelization and flavor.
  • Cook the flour thoroughly to avoid lumps and ensure smooth gravy texture.
  • Adjust seasoning at the end by tasting the gravy and adding salt or Worcestershire sauce as needed.
