HOMEMADE SALISBURY STEAK

I love this Salisbury steak recipe with broccoli or asparagus as the side but decided to use peas today, mainly because I didn’t have either of my two favorites and I had just used corn in my chicken fried steak with country gravy recipe the other day.

HOW TO MAKE SALISBURY STEAK

This Salisbury steak in mushroom onion gravy is easy to make. Grab a mixing bowl, and mix ground beef, onions, egg, bread crumbs, Worcestershire sauce, crushed red peppers, parsley and pepper together. Divide the ground beef into equal amounts and shape into oval patties about 1/2 inch thick. Should be able to get 5 or 6 patties out of this mixture. Heat a cast iron pan, or large frying pan, over medium high heat and cooked each patty for about 4-5 minutes on each side. Once golden brown and crispy on both sides, remove them from the pan and place on a plate.

PAN SEARED DELICIOUSNESS

Reduce the heat to medium, add onions and garlic to the pan along with the drippings from the steaks, and cook for 3-4 minutes. Stir in mushrooms and continue cooking for another few minutes. Sprinkle flour into pan, stir and cook for another minute or so. Next, add the beef broth, stir for a few minutes and then place the Salisbury steaks back into the pan. Cover the steaks in the gravy mixture and let the juices from the gravy saturate throughout the patties, cover the pan and cook for about 20-30 minutes. The gravy will also thicken up as it cools. That’s pretty much it. Pretty easy, right? Now just get some mashed potatoes and a vegetable to serve alongside and you will have a delicious homemade comfort meal that is absolutely scrumptious.
