Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs ground beef (80/20 blend)
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 small onion, grated fine
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp smoked paprika
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 large onion, sliced thin
- 8 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp fresh thyme (or 1/2 tsp dried)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp heavy cream (optional)
- Fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
- In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, panko breadcrumbs, milk, egg, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, grated onion, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Mix gently until just combined.
- Form the mixture into four equal-sized patties, about 1-inch thick. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side until they develop a nice brown crust. Remove the patties from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add butter and sliced onions. Cook until the onions are soft and caramelized, about 5 minutes. Add sliced mushrooms and cook until they’re browned and tender. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
- Sprinkle flour over the mushroom mixture and stir to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes to cook off the raw flour taste.
- Gradually whisk in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a simmer and add fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper. Return the patties to the skillet, reduce the heat, and cover. Let simmer for about 10-15 minutes, until the patties are cooked through.
- If desired, stir in heavy cream for a richer gravy. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve the Salisbury steak warm, spooning the gravy over the patties. Garnish with fresh parsley.
