Ingredients

For The Steaks

  • 1 lb. lean ground beef
  • ¼ cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 2 tsp ketchup
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • ½ tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil (for the skillet)

For The Gravy

  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp flour
  • 1½ cups beef stock (or low-sodium broth)
  • 1 tbsp ketchup
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • 6 oz. sliced cremini mushrooms
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

For Serving

  • Mashed potatoes
  • Roasted broccoli

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Steak Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the lean ground beef, panko breadcrumbs, beaten egg, ketchup, Dijon mustard, dried oregano, and kosher salt. Mix gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix to keep the steaks tender.
  2. Shape the Patties: Divide the mixture evenly and form into 4 oval-shaped patties about ¾-inch thick.
  3. Sear the Steaks: Heat the extra-virgin olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook for about 3 minutes on each side until they develop a nice golden crust. Reduce heat if they brown too quickly. Transfer the steaks to a plate once seared.
  4. Make the Gravy: Lower the heat to medium and add the unsalted butter to the same skillet with the drippings. After the butter melts, whisk in the flour until you have a smooth roux with no lumps.
  5. Add Liquids and Seasonings: Gradually whisk in the beef stock, then add ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and onion powder. Stir well to combine.
  6. Cook Mushrooms and Thicken Gravy: Add the sliced cremini mushrooms to the skillet and let the gravy simmer on medium-low for about 5 minutes until it thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Simmer the Steaks in Gravy: Nestle the seared steaks back into the skillet with the gravy. Cover and cook for an additional 10 minutes until the internal temperature of the steaks reaches 160°F, ensuring they are fully cooked.
  8. Serve: Plate the Salisbury steaks over creamy mashed potatoes and spoon the mushroom gravy on top. Serve alongside roasted broccoli for a complete, comforting meal.

Notes

  • Using lean ground beef reduces excess fat but keeps the patties juicy when not overmixed.
  • Panko breadcrumbs provide a light texture; regular breadcrumbs can be substituted.
  • Ensure the internal temperature of the steaks reaches 160°F for safe consumption.
  • Leftover gravy can be refrigerated and reheated as a delicious sauce for other dishes.
  • Mushrooms can be replaced with cremini or button mushrooms according to preference.
