Ingredients

(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

For the Salisbury Steaks:

1 pound (500g) ground beef (80% lean)

1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs

1 large egg

1 teaspoon yellow mustard

1/3 cup tomato sauce or ketchup

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Salt, to taste

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

For the Mushroom Gravy:

1 onion, sliced

9 ounces (250g) button mushrooms, sliced

2 1/2 cups low-sodium beef broth

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

3 tablespoons cornstarch mixed with 1/4 cup water (slurry)

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Directions

Prepare the Salisbury Steaks:

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, tomato sauce, egg, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, oregano, pepper, and salt. Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat.

Shape the mixture into 4 oval patties.

Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the patties for 3 minutes on each side. Remove from skillet and set aside.

Make the Mushroom Gravy:

In the same skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the onions and mushrooms, cooking for 5-7 minutes until softened and lightly browned.

Stir in onion powder, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Pour in the beef broth and bring to a simmer.

Gradually add the cornstarch slurry, stirring constantly until the gravy thickens, about 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Combine and Serve:

Nestle the browned Salisbury steaks into the mushroom gravy.

Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10-12 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and ensuring the patties are fully cooked.

Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, and serve hot over mashed potatoes or rice.

Variations

Add a twist of herbs: Fresh thyme or rosemary can enhance the flavor of the mushroom gravy.

Swap the protein: Use ground turkey or chicken for a lighter option.

Cheesy delight: Mix shredded cheese into the Salisbury steak mixture for an indulgent twist.

Creamy gravy: Add a splash of heavy cream to the mushroom gravy for a richer texture.

Gluten-free: Use gluten-free breadcrumbs and tamari instead of Worcestershire sauce.

Storage/Reheating

Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Reheating: Reheat in a skillet over low heat, adding a splash of water or beef broth to keep the gravy from drying out. Alternatively, microwave in 30-second increments until warmed through.

Freezing: Freeze Salisbury steaks and gravy in a freezer-safe container for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
