Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Ground beef
- 2 tablespoons Breadcrumbs
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Ketchup
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 150 grams Button mushrooms, sliced
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 1 cup Beef broth
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 tablespoon Chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, egg, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined. Avoid over-mixing as this can make the patties tough.
Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape them into oval patties about 1/2-inch thick.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the patties and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked through. Transfer the patties to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
In the same skillet, add butter and let it melt over medium heat. Add sliced mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and browned.
Add minced garlic to the skillet and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
Pour in the beef broth and bring to a gentle simmer. Reduce heat to low and let the sauce simmer for 3-4 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Gradually stir the slurry into the mushroom sauce, cooking for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Return the Salisbury steak patties to the skillet, spooning the mushroom sauce over the top. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to reheat the patties.
Transfer the Salisbury steak to plates, spoon the mushroom sauce over the top, and garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
Serve hot with your favorite side dishes, such as mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables.
