Instructions
1. Make the Salisbury Steak Patties:
In a large bowl, mix ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, Worcestershire, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until just combined.
Form into 4–6 oval patties.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear patties for 4–5 minutes per side until browned (they don’t need to be fully cooked through). Remove and set aside.
2. Prepare the Gravy:
In the same skillet, melt butter.
Add sliced onions and cook for 3–4 minutes.
Add mushrooms and garlic; sauté for another 5–6 minutes until softened.
Sprinkle in flour and cook for 1 minute.
Slowly whisk in beef broth and Worcestershire sauce.
Simmer for 5 minutes until thickened. Season with salt and pepper.
Return patties to the skillet, spoon gravy over them, cover, and simmer for 10–15 minutes until cooked through.
3. Make the Garlic Mashed Potatoes:
Boil potatoes and garlic cloves in salted water until tender, about 15–20 minutes.
Drain and mash with butter and milk until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
4. Assemble & Serve:
Plate mashed potatoes, top with Salisbury steak, and ladle mushroom & onion gravy over everything. Enjoy!
Notes
You can use ground turkey or chicken for a lighter option.
For extra flavor, add fresh thyme or rosemary to the gravy.
Mashed cauliflower can be used for a lower-carb side.
