Skillet Salisbury Steak (106 of 125)

I've tried a dozen or so Salisbury Steak recipes. I have liked most of them. They all have the same basic flavor profile. Mushrooms, onions, beef. 

This one was no different. It was tasty. I put it over cauliflower mashed...which, in case you're wondering, does not at all taste like regular mashed potatoes. It was fine, but mashed potatoes are the right way to go. 

I should also mention I grilled the burgers instead of cooking them in the pan. I'm so bad at pan frying that I just didn't want to bother with it.

Recipe from The Recipe Critic

Serves 4

• 1 pound ground beef
• ½ c bread crumbs
• 2 T ketchup
• 1 T Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tsp mustard powder
• 1 egg
• salt and pepper
• 2 T butter

Gravy:

• 1 T olive oil
• 6 ounce mushrooms
• ½ large onion sliced
• 2½ c beef broth
• 2 T ketchup
• 2 T Worcestershire sauce
• 1 T cornstarch
• 1 T water

In a medium sized mixing bowl add the ground beef, bread crumbs, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, mustard powder, egg, and salt and pepper. Mix with your hands until just combined and shape into 4 oval patties.

Heat the butter in a medium sized skillet over medium high heat. Add the patties and cook until the sides are slightly crisp and cooked throughout. Remove and set aside on a plate.

Add the olive oil to the pan with the mushrooms and onion and cook until tender. Set aside on a plate.

To make the gravy: Add the beef broth, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce to the skillet. In a small bowl add the cornstarch and water creating a slurry. Whisk it into the gravy and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium low and add the mushrooms, onions, and patties back to the skillet. Allow to simmer until the gravy starts to thicken. Salt and pepper to taste. Serve over mashed potatoes and peas and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
