Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef (preferably 80/20 for flavor)
- 0.25 cup almond flour
- 1 large egg
- 1 tbsp unsweetened Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp avocado oil or olive oil
- 1.5 cups beef broth
- 0.5 tsp xanthan gum (for thickening)
- 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
- 0.5 cup onion, thinly sliced
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, almond flour, egg, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Mix the ingredients well with your hands until just combined. Do not overmix to avoid tough steaks.
Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into oval patties.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of avocado oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the patties to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side until browned. Remove the patties from the skillet and set them aside on a plate.
In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of avocado oil. Add the sliced mushrooms and onions, cooking for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Pour the beef broth into the skillet, scraping the bottom to deglaze and incorporate all the browned bits.
Sprinkle the xanthan gum over the broth, whisking continuously to thicken the sauce. Adjust to your desired consistency, adding a tiny bit more xanthan gum if needed.
Return the Salisbury steak patties to the skillet and spoon some of the sauce and vegetables over each one.
Lower the heat to a gentle simmer, cover the skillet, and cook for 10-12 minutes until the patties are cooked through (internal temperature should reach 160°F).
Serve hot with the mushroom-onion gravy drizzled generously over the patties. Pair with steamed low-carb vegetables or mashed cauliflower for a complete meal.
