Ingredients:
For the Salisbury Steak:
- 1 pound ground beef (80% lean)
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
For the Mushroom Gravy:
- 2 cups sliced mushrooms (button or cremini)
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups beef broth
- Salt and black pepper to taste
For the Mashed Potatoes:
- 4 large potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/2 cup milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
1. Make the Salisbury Steak:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, milk, egg, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until well combined.
- Divide the mixture into 4-6 equal portions and shape them into oval patties.
2. Cook the Salisbury Steak:
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add a little oil.
- Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes per side or until they are browned and cooked through. Remove the patties from the skillet and set them aside.
3. Make the Mushroom Gravy:
- In the same skillet, add the butter and melt it over medium heat.
- Add the sliced mushrooms, chopped onion, and minced garlic. Cook until the mushrooms are browned and the onions are soft.
- Sprinkle the flour over the mushroom mixture and stir well for a minute to cook off the raw flour taste.
- Gradually whisk in the beef broth, making sure to stir constantly to avoid lumps.
- Simmer the gravy until it thickens, which should take about 5-7 minutes.
- Season the gravy with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Make the Mashed Potatoes:
- While the gravy is simmering, boil the diced potatoes in a large pot of salted water until they are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
- Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot.
- Add the butter and milk to the potatoes and mash them until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
5. Serve:
- Place a Salisbury steak patty on a plate, spoon mushroom gravy over it, and serve with a generous scoop of mashed potatoes.
