Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground turkey
- 1 large egg white
- 0.5 cup whole wheat breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium small onion, finely chopped
- 8 ounces sliced mushrooms
- 1.5 cups low-sodium beef broth
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons cold water
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, egg white, whole wheat breadcrumbs, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, half of the chopped onion, and black pepper. Mix well using clean hands or a spatula until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into oval patties.
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the patties and cook for about 5 minutes on each side or until they are browned and cooked through. Remove the patties from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining chopped onion and sliced mushrooms. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and the onions are translucent.
In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and cold water, stirring until smooth.
Add the beef broth to the skillet with the mushrooms and onions. Stir in the cornstarch mixture and bring to a simmer. Cook while stirring for about 2-3 minutes until the gravy thickens.
Return the patties to the skillet, drizzling them with the mushroom gravy. Simmer for an additional 2 minutes to heat through.
Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the Salisbury steaks before serving for a burst of freshness and color.
Serve hot, optionally over whole grain pasta or mashed sweet potatoes for a complete meal.
