Ingredients
Scale
Patties
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- â…“ 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
- Make Patties: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well using your hands until all ingredients are evenly incorporated. Shape the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties.
- Cook Patties: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place the patties in the skillet and cook them until browned on both sides and fully cooked through with no pink remaining inside, about 4-5 minutes per side.
- Make Gravy: Reduce the heat to low. In a separate bowl, whisk together the brown gravy mix and hot water until smooth. Stir in the ketchup and Worcestershire sauce until combined.
- Simmer: Pour the prepared gravy over the cooked patties in the skillet. Let everything simmer gently until the gravy is heated through and has thickened slightly, about 3-5 minutes.
Notes
- You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for a leaner version of the patties.
- Serve Salisbury steak with mashed potatoes or buttered egg noodles for a complete meal.
- Make sure to cook the patties thoroughly to an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) for safety.
- For extra flavor, sauté some sliced mushrooms in the skillet before adding the gravy.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
