Simple Salisbury Steak Tips

Here are a few tips to help you make the perfect Simple Salisbury Steak:

1. Be sure to finely chop the onion and mushrooms. This will help them cook evenly and blend into the sauce.
2. If you don’t have time to make your own gravy, you can use a store-bought version. Just be sure to read the labels and choose one that is low in sodium.
3. I like to serve my Salisbury steak over mashed potatoes, but you could also serve it over rice or noodles.
4. To get that classic “steakhouse” flavor, add a little Worcestershire sauce to the gravy.
5. Leftovers are just as good reheated. So if you have any Salisbury steak leftover, be sure to save it for another meal!

Ingredients:

For the patties:

• Lean ground beef
• Bread crumbs
• Ketchup
• Mustard
• Worcestershire sauce
• Garlic powder
• Onion powder
• Salt and pepper to taste

For the gravy:

• Hot water
• Brown gravy powdered mix
• Ketchup
• Worcestershire sauce

How To Make This Simple Salisbury Steak:

Step 1. Mix together the ingredients for the patties until well combined.

Form the mixture into 6 even-sized patties.

Step 2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the patties on both sides. Remove and set aside.

Step 3. In a bowl, whisk together the ingredients for the gravy.

Step 4. Add the gravy mixture to the same skillet over medium heat. Saute until the gravy begins to thicken.

Step 5. Place the meat patties back into the skillet, flip to coat in the gravy, cover and saute over medium low heat for 20 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through.
