Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds ground beef
- 1 cup breadcrumb
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large yellow onion
- 8 ounces mushrooms
- 2 cups beef broth
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 3 tablespoons water
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until evenly combined.
Form the mixture into 4-6 oval-shaped patties, about 1/2 inch thick.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the patties for 2-3 minutes on each side, until browned (they do not need to cook through). Transfer the seared patties to the slow cooker.
Slice the yellow onion thinly, and layer it over the patties in the slow cooker.
Clean and slice the mushrooms, and add them on top of the onions.
In a small bowl, stir the cornstarch into the water to create a slurry. Mix the slurry into the beef broth, and pour this mixture into the slow cooker over the patties, onions, and mushrooms.
Cover the slow cooker and cook on low heat for 5 hours, or until the patties are tender and the flavors are well developed.
Optional: To thicken the gravy further, transfer the liquid from the slow cooker to a saucepan and simmer for a few minutes on the stovetop, stirring occasionally.
Serve the Salisbury steak hot with gravy drizzled on top. Pair it with mashed potatoes, rice, or steamed vegetables if desired.
