Here’s a classic Salisbury Steak recipe that’s hearty, comforting, and perfect for a family dinner:
Ingredients (serves 4)
For the steaks:
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the gravy:
- 2 tbsp butter
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups beef broth
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Mix the steak patties:
- In a bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, onion, egg, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper.
- Shape into 4 oval patties.
- Cook the patties:
- In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the patties 3–4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
- Make the gravy:
- In the same skillet, melt butter.
- Whisk in flour and cook 1–2 minutes until golden.
- Gradually whisk in beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Simmer until thickened. Season with salt and pepper.
- Combine:
- Return patties to the skillet, spooning gravy over them.
- Simmer 10–15 minutes until patties are cooked through.
- Serve:
- Perfect over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles.
💡 Tip: Add sautéed mushrooms or caramelized onions to the gravy for extra flavor.
If you want, I can also give a slow-cooker version so the Salisbury steaks cook in the gravy all day for super tender results. Do you want me to do that?
