Let’s Cook!
Salisbury Steak:
- Combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, onion, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, thyme, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Mix well.
- Shape mixture into 6 oval patties (about 1-inch thick).
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook patties 4-5 minutes per side, until browned and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
Garlic Mashed Potatoes:
- Peel and chunk potatoes. Boil in salted water until tender (15-20 minutes).
- While potatoes boil, melt butter in a saucepan. Add minced garlic and cook 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Drain potatoes and return to pot. Add garlic butter and milk. Mash until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper.
Mushroom & Onion Gravy:
- In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add mushrooms and onions; cook until tender and lightly browned (8-10 minutes).
- Sprinkle flour over mushrooms and onions, stirring well. Cook 1-2 minutes.
- Slowly pour in beef broth, stirring constantly. Add Worcestershire sauce and season.
- Simmer 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened.
Variations & Tips
Variations: Add fresh herbs to the steak, use ground turkey/chicken, add cream cheese/sour cream to the potatoes, or add red wine/Dijon mustard to the gravy.
Tips: Wet your hands when shaping patties. Sear steaks before oven-finishing for extra flavor. Slice mushrooms/onions evenly. Adjust gravy thickness with broth/water. Adjust seasonings to taste.
