Description
This Classic Salisbury Steak recipe features tender beef patties smothered in a savory onion and garlic gravy. Made with ground beef, panko breadcrumbs, and rich seasonings, it’s a comforting dish that pairs perfectly with mashed potatoes, rice, or vegetables.
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
- 1 onion, finely diced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 pound ground beef (80% lean)
- 1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 1/3 cup tomato sauce or marinara
- 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- Salt, to taste
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine ground beef, panko breadcrumbs, egg, tomato sauce, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and shape into 4 patties, about 1/2 inch thick. Set aside.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook for 4-5 minutes per side until browned and cooked through (internal temperature 160°F/71°C). Remove the steaks and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil. Add diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Stir in 1/4 cup water or beef broth, scraping up browned bits. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.
- Return steaks to the skillet, spoon some gravy over them, and cover. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the steaks are heated through and the gravy thickens.
- Serve the Salisbury steaks with gravy over the top. Enjoy with mashed potatoes, rice, or vegetables.
Notes
- For a mushroom twist, sauté mushrooms with the onions and garlic for a rich mushroom gravy.
- For a leaner option, substitute ground turkey for the beef, but adjust seasoning accordingly.
- Add red pepper flakes for a spicy variation of the gravy.
