Salisbury Steak with Onion Gravy (Classic Comfort Food)


  • Author: twiza amys

Ingredients

Scale

Salisbury Steak Patties

  • 1 ½ lb ground beef

  • ¾ cup breadcrumbs

  • 1 large egg

  • ½ cup milk

  • 1 small onion, finely diced

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

Onion Gravy

  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced

  • 2 cups beef broth

  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

  • Salt and black pepper, to taste


Instructions

Step 1: Make the Beef Patties

In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, milk, diced onion, garlic, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and onion powder. Mix gently until just combined. Shape into oval patties.

Step 2: Brown the Patties

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add a small amount of oil if needed. Brown the patties on both sides until well-seared, about 3–4 minutes per side. Remove patties from skillet and set aside.

Step 3: Cook the Onions

In the same skillet, melt butter. Add sliced onions and cook over medium heat until soft and caramelized, about 8–10 minutes.

Step 4: Make the Gravy

Sprinkle flour over the onions and stir to coat. Slowly pour in beef broth while stirring to prevent lumps. Add Worcestershire sauce and simmer until thickened.

Step 5: Simmer the Steak

 

Return the beef patties to the skillet, spooning gravy over them. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15–20 minutes until patties are cooked through and tender.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the beef to keep patties tender.

  • Browning adds flavor—don’t skip this step.

  • Gravy thickens as it simmers; adjust with broth if needed.

  • Simmer gently to prevent patties from falling apart.
