Salisbury Steak
Description
This Salisbury Steak recipe starts with lean ground beef mixed with panko breadcrumbs, egg, garlic powder, and black pepper to form patties. After browning them briefly in butter with sliced onions and mushrooms, a sauce is made from beef broth, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, dry mustard powder, flour, and water. The browned patties return to the skillet, topped with the onion and mushroom mixture, then simmer gently to finish cooking and thicken the gravy. The resulting dish has moist, flavorful patties swimming in a rich, tangy sauce complemented by tender mushrooms and caramelized onions.
Serve Salisbury Steak alongside mashed potatoes, rice, or vegetables to soak up the mushroom gravy. It functions well as a classic comfort food entrée in home meal settings.
Practical notes suggest mushroom types can vary, and frozen patties can substitute. The gravy can be thickened further with cornstarch if needed. Seasonings may be adjusted carefully as the condensed broth provides salt. Leftovers store well refrigerated up to four days.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter salted
- 1 medium onion thinly sliced
- 4 ounces mushrooms thinly sliced
- 1 ½ pounds ground beef lean
- 10.5 ounces beef broth 1 can, divided, condensed
- ½ cup panko bread crumbs
- 1 large egg
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon dry mustard powder
- ½ cup water
Instructions
- In a 12-inch skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and cook until softened, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the mushrooms and continue cooking until the liquid has been released and is almost evaporated. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the beef, ¼ cup beef broth, bread crumbs, egg, garlic powder, and black pepper. Shape into 6 patties, 4 inches in diameter.
- Add the flour to a small bowl. Add about 2 tablespoons of beef broth and whisk until smooth. Add the remaining beef broth, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, mustard powder, and water.
- Place half of the beef patties in the same skillet over medium heat and brown for 2 minutes per side —they do not need to be cooked through. Transfer to a plate and brown the remaining patties.
- Add all of the beef patties back to the skillet and top with the mushroom mixture. Whisk the sauce and pour over the patties.
- Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat and cover. Simmer for 14 to 20 minutes or until the beef is cooked through.
- Serve over mashed potatoes or egg noodles.
Notes
- Use any mushroom variety: portobello, cremini, or white mushrooms are suitable.
- Frozen hamburger patties can replace homemade patties if desired; cook beef fully to 160°F internal temperature.
- If preferred, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard can substitute dry mustard powder in the gravy.
- To thicken gravy more, whisk cornstarch with cold water or broth and add to simmering sauce gradually.
- Season sparingly, as condensed beef broth adds salt; adjust if needed.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
