Instructions
Form and Sear the Steaks
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the onions and garlic for 5 minutes. Remove and let cool. This is optional but it makes them more subtle in texture and flavor which is ideal in Salisbury steak, especially for picky eaters.
- Whisk together the egg, milk, mustard, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, oregano, salt, and pepper. Add the breadcrumbs and stir to form a paste. Stir in the cooked onions/garlic. This is called a panade, it makes the Salisbury steak juicy and flavorful.
- Add the ground beef and panade to a large bowl. Use your hands to mix until just combined, don’t overmix or the meat will become tough.
- Form into 4 oval steaks. Refrigerate them for 15 minutes to ensure they stay together.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown 2 steaks at a time on each side for 1 minute, remove and set aside. Middle will be uncooked.
Prepare the Gravy
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in the same skillet over medium heat. Sauté onions for about 5 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon of butter along with the mushrooms and cook until golden, about 5 more minutes.
- Add the beef broth, beef bouillon, onion powder, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce.
- Bring the gravy to a boil. Combine 3 tablespoons cornstarch + ¼ cup COLD water. Slowly whisk in the cornstarch mixture until desired level of thickness is obtained, you may not need to add it all. Decrease heat to medium.
Add the Steaks
- Add the Salisbury Steak back and spoon the gravy on top. Cover and cook for about 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat, it’s done when the internal temperature reaches 160° F.
- Serve with mashed potatoes and roasted green beans!
Notes
- Pro Tips:
- To thicken the gravy with a roux (butter + flour), instead of a slurry, (cornstarch + water):
- Nutritional information is an estimate and is per serving. There are 4 servings in this recipe.
- Set out all ingredients before you start, it really helps the recipe move along quickly and easily.
- Use a spatula large enough to hold entire meat patty so that it’s fully supported when being handled.
- Sear 2 patties at a time so that you can easily flip them in the pan.
- Onions and/or Mushrooms can be eliminated from the gravy if preferred.
- This recipe is in The Cozy Cookbook on page 71!
- Melt 2 Tablespoons of butter in the pan after you soften the onions/mushrooms.
- Whisk in 2 Tablespoons of flour. Continue whisking for 1 minute to cook off the raw flour taste.
- Slowly add the beef broth, whisking continuously as you do so.
- Add the seasonings, bring to a boil, and reduce to a simmer. Add the Steaks back to the pan. Cover and cook for 10-15 minutes.
