Classic comfort food done right! Juicy beef patties simmered in savory mushroom-onion gravy — hearty, rich, and full of flavor.

Ingredients

For the Salisbury Steaks:

lbs ground beef

½ cup breadcrumbs

1 large egg

¼ cup milk

1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

1 tsp Dijon mustard

Salt and black pepper (to taste)

For the Gravy:

2 Tbsp olive oil

2 Tbsp butter

1 medium onion (thinly sliced)

8 oz mushrooms (sliced)

2 cloves garlic (minced)

2 Tbsp all-purpose flour

2 cups beef broth

Fresh parsley (chopped, optional for garnish)

Instructions

Make the patties:
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, milk, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined. Shape into oval patties.

Sear the patties:
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Brown patties on both sides (about 3–4 minutes per side). Remove and set aside.

Make the gravy:
In the same skillet, melt butter. Add onions and cook until soft and lightly caramelized (about 6–8 minutes). Add mushrooms and garlic; cook until mushrooms are browned and moisture evaporates.

Thicken the sauce:
Sprinkle flour into the pan, stir to coat. Slowly pour in beef broth, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Simmer until the gravy thickens, about 5–7 minutes.

Simmer together:
Return patties to the skillet, spoon gravy over the top, reduce heat, and simmer for 10–15 minutes until patties are cooked through.

Serve:
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot over mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.

Notes

Make it lighter: Swap ground beef for ground turkey or chicken.

Boost flavor: Add a splash of red wine to the gravy while deglazing.

No mushrooms? You can use just onions for a classic onion gravy.

Freeze ahead: Cool fully, store in an airtight container, and freeze with gravy for up to 2 months.
