Salisbury steak with onion gravy is a comforting and flavorful dish. Here’s a simple recipe for you:
Ingredients:
For the Salisbury steak:
- 1 1/2 pounds ground beef (preferably lean)
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onions
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 egg
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the onion gravy:
- 2 large onions, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Prepare the Salisbury Steak:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, chopped onions, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, Worcestershire sauce, egg, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Divide the mixture and shape it into oval-shaped patties, about 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick.
- Cook the Patties:
- Heat a skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat and add a bit of oil.
- Once the pan is hot, add the patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are browned and cooked through. Remove the patties from the pan and set them aside.
- Make the Onion Gravy:
- In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter.
- Add the thinly sliced onions and cook them, stirring occasionally, until they are caramelized and golden brown, about 10-15 minutes.
- Sprinkle the flour over the caramelized onions and stir well to combine, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes.
- Add the Broth and Seasoning:
- Gradually pour in the beef broth, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.
- Add the Worcestershire sauce and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Allow the gravy to simmer for a few minutes until it thickens to your desired consistency.
- Combine and Serve:
- Once the gravy has thickened, return the cooked Salisbury steak patties to the skillet, covering them with the onion gravy.
- Let the patties simmer in the gravy for a few more minutes to absorb the flavors.
- Serve the Salisbury steak with onion gravy hot, garnished with chopped parsley if desired. It pairs wonderfully with mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables.
Enjoy this comforting and hearty Salisbury steak with rich onion gravy!
