Salisbury Steak

Tom had recently had a television dinner that was Salisbury Steak, and it wasn't as good as he wanted it to be, so I planned to make it from scratch one day. I gave it a try tonight, using a recipe from the Betty Crocker website.

Salisbury Steak

Ingredients
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1/3 cup Progresso™ dry bread crumbs (any flavor)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 egg
  • 1 large onion, sliced and separated into rings
  • 1 can (10 1/2 ounces) condensed beef broth
  • 8 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced (3 cups)
  • 2 tablespoons cold water
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
Directions
  1. Mix beef, bread crumbs, salt, pepper and egg. Shape into 4 oval patties, each about 3/4 inch thick.
  2. Cook patties in 10-inch skillet over medium heat about 10 minutes, turning occasionally, until brown; drain. Add onion, broth and mushrooms. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer about 10 minutes or until beef is done.
  3. Remove patties; keep warm. Heat onion mixture to boiling. Mix water and cornstarch; stir into onion mixture. Boil and stir 1 minute. Serve over patties.
We both enjoyed the dish. I, of course, strained out the mushrooms and onions from the gravy for Tom, so I ate mushrooms and onions on the side of my meal. Paired with mashed potatoes, it was really filling, and will make a good second meal.
