Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef (80/20)
- 1 cup Breadcrumbs
- 1 Egg
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1 medium Onion (finely chopped)
- 2 cups Beef broth
- 2 tablespoons Ketchup
- 1 teaspoon Mustard (yellow or Dijon)
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Water
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, milk, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly using clean hands or a fork until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into an oval patty about 1/2-inch thick.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the patties to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until well browned. Remove the patties from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the finely chopped onion and cook over medium heat until softened and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Sprinkle the flour over the cooked onions and stir to coat. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
Gradually pour in the beef broth while stirring continuously to prevent lumps. Add the ketchup and mustard and stir until the sauce is smooth.
Return the cooked patties to the skillet, ensuring they’re fully submerged in the sauce. Lower the heat to a simmer, cover the skillet, and cook for 15 minutes, flipping the patties halfway through.
If the gravy is too thick, stir in 2 tablespoons of water to reach your desired consistency. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper as needed.
Serve the Salisbury steaks hot with a generous spoonful of gravy over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles for a comforting meal.
