Description
A comforting and savory Salisbury steak recipe featuring seasoned ground beef patties topped with rich gravy.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1½ pounds ground beef (80/20 blend recommended)
- ½ cup Italian breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon ketchup
- 2 teaspoons dry mustard
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 beef bouillon cube, crushed
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cups hot water
- 2 beef bouillon cubes
- 1 tablespoon ketchup
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 4 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1 medium yellow onion, sliced into half-moons
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 8 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced (optional)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, ketchup, dry mustard, Worcestershire sauce, beef bouillon, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined.
- Shape the mixture into patties, ideally about ¾ inch thick.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes per side or until browned.
- Remove the patties from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add sliced onions and sauté until softened. Then add minced garlic and mushrooms (if using), cooking until aromatic.
- Stir in hot water, beef bouillon cubes, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and pepper. Bring to a simmer.
- In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with a bit of cold water to form a slurry. Gradually whisk this into the gravy, stirring until thickened.
- Return the browned patties to the skillet, nestling them into the gravy. Spoon the gravy over the patties and let it simmer on low for about 3-5 minutes.
- Ensure the patties reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) before serving.
- Serve hot, generously covered with onion and mushroom gravy.
