Salisbury Steak with Garlic Mashed Potatoes and Mushroom & Onion Gravy is a classic, comforting meal that’s hearty, flavorful, and perfect for a cozy dinner. Here’s a complete recipe for you!

Ingredients:

For the Salisbury Steak:

• 1 lb ground beef (preferably 80/20 for better flavor)

• 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko)

• 1/4 cup milk

• 1/4 cup finely chopped onion

• 1 egg

• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

• 1 teaspoon garlic powder

• 1 teaspoon dried thyme

• Salt and pepper, to taste

• 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)

For the Mushroom & Onion Gravy:

• 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter

• 1 medium onion, sliced thinly

• 8 oz mushrooms, sliced

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 cup beef broth (or more for a thinner gravy)

• 1 tablespoon flour (optional, for thickening)

• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

• 1 teaspoon soy sauce (optional, for extra umami)

• Salt and pepper to taste

• Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

For the Garlic Mashed Potatoes:

• 2 lbs russet potatoes (about 4-5 medium potatoes), peeled and cut into chunks

• 4 cloves garlic, peeled

• 1/2 cup heavy cream or milk

• 1/4 cup butter

• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Make the Salisbury Steaks:

1. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, chopped onion, egg, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix everything until just combined—don’t overmix to keep the steaks tender.

2. Shape the mixture into 4-5 oval patties, about 1/2 inch thick.

3. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through (internal temperature should be 160°F/71°C). Remove the patties from the skillet and set aside.

2. Make the Mushroom & Onion Gravy:

1. In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil or butter. Add the sliced onions and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften and caramelize.

2. Add the sliced mushrooms and garlic and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes until the mushrooms release their moisture and become golden brown.

3. If you want a thicker gravy, sprinkle 1 tablespoon of flour over the onions and mushrooms and stir to combine. Let it cook for 1 minute to eliminate the raw flour taste.

4. Pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce (if using). Stir everything together, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan.

5. Bring the gravy to a simmer and let it cook for 5-7 minutes, or until it thickens slightly. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.

6. Return the Salisbury steaks to the skillet, spoon some gravy over the top, and let them simmer for another 5 minutes, so the flavors meld.

3. Make the Garlic Mashed Potatoes:

1. In a large pot, add the peeled and cut potatoes, garlic cloves, and enough water to cover them. Bring the water to a boil and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.

2. Drain the potatoes and garlic, then return them to the pot.

3. Mash the potatoes and garlic with a potato masher or use a hand mixer for a smoother consistency.

4. Add the butter and heavy cream (or milk) and continue to mash until creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

4. Serve:

1. Plate the garlic mashed potatoes and top them with a Salisbury steak. Spoon the mushroom and onion gravy over both the steak and potatoes.

2. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately.

This Salisbury Steak with Garlic Mashed Potatoes and Mushroom & Onion Gravy is a rich and comforting meal, perfect for any occasion when you’re craving something hearty and flavorful! 🍽️🍄🥔
