Salisbury Steak Meatballs
Description
This Salisbury Steak Meatballs recipe starts with mixing ground beef, Italian breadcrumbs, milk, fresh parsley, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper to form small meatballs. Onions and mushrooms are sautéed in butter until soft, then the meatballs are browned in the same pan. A sauce made from beef broth, water, flour, ketchup, Dijon mustard, parsley, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce is whisked together and poured over the meatballs. The mixture is brought to a boil then simmered uncovered to reduce, followed by a covered simmer to fully develop flavor and cook the meatballs through.
The flavor blends the richness of beef with the earthiness of mushrooms and a tangy, slightly sweet sauce. The meatballs are tender with a moist interior from the milk and cheese, balanced by the textured sautéed mushrooms and onions. Cooking the meatballs in the sauce allows them to absorb its flavors while remaining juicy.
Serve these Salisbury Steak Meatballs hot, paired with mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or steamed vegetables to balance the savory sauce. The thickened beef broth sauce acts like a gravy, making the dish satisfying.
