THE BEST SALISBURY STEAK
Classic
comfort, the best Salisbury steak recipe made with ground beef in a rich and
fleshy mushroom sauce. Better than mom did!
Ingredients
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp tomato paste
- 1 1/3 lbs lean ground beef
- 1 tsp grill seasoning
- 1 small onion thinly sliced
- 4 tbsp butter divided
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 7 tbsp instant potato flakes
- 1 3/4 cups beef broth
- 1/4 cup red wine
- salt and pepper to taste
- 16 oz button mushrooms stemmed and sliced
- 1/2 cup milk
Instructions
First, in a
large bowl, whisk together milk, potato flakes, Worcestershire sauce, grill
seasoning and salt.
Then, add
the beef and mix until well blended. Divide the meat mixture into four patties.
Refrigerate for 30 minutes (or up to four hours).
In a large
non-stick skillet, melt two tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the
salisbury steaks and cook for about five minutes on each side to brown the
outside. Remove to a clean plate and cover with aluminum foil.
Add the two
remaining tablespoons of butter to the same pan over medium heat. Add the
onions and cook for a few minutes, stirring to coat.
Add the
mushrooms and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until all of
the liquid has evaporated and the mushrooms are golden brown - this will take
about 10 minutes.
Add the
flour and the tomato paste and mix well. Stir in beef broth and red wine. Bring
the sauce to a boil and simmer.
Return the
salisbury steaks to the pan in the simmering sauce. Cover the pan and cook for
about 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature of salisbury steaks reaches
160 degrees.
Serve over
mashed potatoes.
Happy
