Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 lb (500 g) ground beef (80% lean)
- 9 oz (250 g) white button mushrooms (sliced)
- 2 1/2 cups low sodium beef broth
Binding and Flavor Ingredients:
- 1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 1/3 cup tomato sauce (marinara)
- 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- Salt to taste
Cooking and Gravy Ingredients:
- 4 tablespoons vegetable oil (divided)
- 2 garlic cloves (minced)
- 2 onions (1 finely diced, 1 sliced)
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/4 cup water (or beef stock)
- Salt and pepper (as needed)
Instructions
- Sauté diced onions in hot vegetable oil over medium heat for 4 minutes until translucent. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute, allowing aromatics to develop flavor. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine cooled onion-garlic mixture with ground beef, Panko breadcrumbs, egg, tomato sauce, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Gently mix ingredients using hands, avoiding overmixing. Form the mixture into 4-5 oval-shaped patties.
- Heat remaining oil in the skillet and brown patties for approximately 1 minute per side to develop a rich exterior. Transfer browned patties to a separate plate.
- In the same skillet, caramelize sliced onions for 5 minutes until golden brown. Add mushroom slices and cook until they develop a deep, golden color, absorbing the steak’s drippings.
- Reintroduce patties to the skillet and pour beef broth. Season with onion powder, garlic powder, additional Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes to ensure patties are fully cooked and flavors integrate.
- Create a cornstarch slurry by mixing cornstarch with water or beef stock. Gradually incorporate into the skillet, stirring continuously. Simmer for 5 minutes until gravy reaches desired consistency, creating a smooth, glossy coating.
Notes
- Customize meat blend by mixing ground chuck with ground sirloin for richer flavor and better texture.
- Avoid dense patties by gently mixing ingredients and handling meat minimally to prevent tough Salisbury steaks.
- Use fresh herbs like thyme or parsley instead of dried oregano to elevate the overall taste profile and add brightness.
- Create gluten-free version by substituting Panko breadcrumbs with almond flour or gluten-free breadcrumbs for those with dietary restrictions.
