Salisbury Steak
Step 1: Prepare “steak” patties
Begin preheating 9” or 10” skillet over medium/medium-high heat.
To a mixing bowl, add:
1/2 lb ground beef
2 Tbsp breadcrumbs
1 egg yolk
1 tsp ketchup
1/2 tsp mustard
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp seasoned salt
1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
Mix together, working the ingredients together with your hands until everything is evenly incorporated.
Divide into 4 equal portions
Compress and form each portion into a 2”-3” patty
Step 2: Sear
To the preheated skillet, add the prepared patties. Cook for 2-3 minutes until there is a crisp sear, then flip and cook an additional 2 minutes to sear the other side. Transfer patties to a covered dish. Use the skillet to make the gravy.
Step 3: Prepare gravy
Reduce heat to medium and to the same skillet add:
1 Tbsp butter
1/4 cup onions, minced
1 tsp garlic, minced
Sauté for 2 minutes, then add:
1 (6 oz) can mushrooms, drained
Continue to cook for ~2 minutes. Push everything to one side of the skillet. In the other side of the skillet, make a roux:
2 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp flour
Whisk flour into melting butter while cooking for 2 minutes on medium heat. Stir together everything in the pan.
Whisking continuously, add:
1 1/2 cup beef broth
Once smooth, also add:
1 Tbsp ketchup
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
Simmer for 1 minute, reduce heat to medium-low.
Step 4: Finish steaks
Transfer the seared ground beef steaks back into the pan with the gravy, cover and simmer on medium-low for 10-15 minutes.
Serve over mashed potatoes.
