Here’s a brief introduction to the Salisbury steak recipe: Mix ground beef with seasonings and shape into patties, then cook until done. Prepare the gravy by adding caramelized onions, beef broth, and flour, then add the patties and let them simmer in the sauce. Serve with mashed potatoes and enjoy!
INGREDIENTS:
1 pound ground beef
⅓ cup bread crumbs
2 teaspoons ketchup
1 teaspoon mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder – optional, use if not doing onion in gravy
Gravy:
1 onion – small
1 teaspoon oil
2 cups beef broth
4 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon ketchup
½ teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
DIRECTIONS:
1. If you want caramelized onions in your gravy, start by thin slicing a small onion. Cook with 1 teaspoon oil over medium-high heat until nicely brown. About 7-8 minutes. Set aside in a bowl.
2. Mix 1 pound ground beef with ⅓ cup bread crumbs, 2 teaspoons ketchup,1 teaspoon mustard and Worcestershire sauce, and ½ teaspoon garlic powder. If not doing the onions, then add ½ teaspoon onion powder.
3. Divide one pound of hamburger mixture into 3-4 equal portions. A quarter-size indent in the middle will help prevent puffing up of the patties and make cooking evener.
4. Place steak patties in a large frying pan with a teaspoon of oil over medium-high heat. Flip about every 5-6 minutes until an internal temperature of about 165°. About 15-20 minutes depending on the thickness, the pan, and your burners.
5. Whisk 4 tablespoons flour with 1 cup beef broth. Remove the Salisbury steak to a plate and lightly tent.
Pour out most of the liquid, leaving about 3-4 tablespoons of liquid. Allow the pan to cool some. Add 1 cup beef broth and bring to a light boil over medium heat.
6. Slowly add the flour-broth mixture while continuing to whisk. Add 1 teaspoon ketchup and ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce. Add salt to taste.
7. Whisk until nicely thickened, a few minutes. If using, add caramelized onions to the gravy and mix well.
8. Add steak back into the mixture, simmer a few minutes. Serve with mashed potatoes or as you wish.
