Description

This Simple Salisbury Steak recipe features flavorful beef patties seasoned with classic spices and smothered in a rich brown gravy. It’s a quick and easy skillet meal perfect for a comforting weeknight dinner.


Ingredients

Patties

  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • ⅓ cup breadcrumbs
  • 2 teaspoons ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Gravy

  • 2 packets brown gravy mix
  • 2 cups hot water
  • 1 teaspoon ketchup
  • ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce


Instructions

  1. Prepare Patties: Combine all patty ingredients in a bowl and mix with your hands until well combined. Shape the mixture into 4 evenly sized patties for uniform cooking.
  2. Cook Patties: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the patties and cook until browned on both sides and no longer pink inside, about 4-5 minutes per side.
  3. Make Gravy: Reduce heat to low. In a separate bowl, whisk together the brown gravy mix with hot water until smooth. Stir in ketchup and Worcestershire sauce to enhance flavor.
  4. Simmer Patties in Gravy: Pour the gravy mixture over the browned patties in the skillet. Let simmer gently until the gravy thickens and heats through, about 3-4 minutes, ensuring the patties soak up the savory sauce.

Notes

  • Use lean ground beef to reduce excess fat but still maintain juiciness.
  • Adjust seasoning and ketchup to taste for sweetness and tang.
  • Serve with mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated up to 3 days and reheated gently on stovetop.
