Easy Salisbury Steak with Mushroom Gravy

This Salisbury steak is made with seasoned ground beef patties that are pan-fried and then simmered in a savory mushroom gravy. The dish takes about 30 minutes to prepare and serves 4 people.
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup onion finely chopped
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup mushrooms sliced
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- Chopped parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Patties: In a bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, egg, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined and form into 4 oval patties.
- Cook the Patties: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Make the Gravy: In the same skillet, add sliced mushrooms and sauté until softened. Pour in beef broth and soy sauce, bringing it to a simmer.
- Thicken the Gravy: Stir in the cornstarch mixture and cook until the gravy thickens, about 2-3 minutes.
- Combine: Return the cooked patties to the skillet, spooning the mushroom gravy over them. Simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.
- Serve: Garnish with chopped parsley if desired and serve hot with mashed potatoes or rice.
