Salisbury Steak with Mushroom Gravy
and mashed potatoes / peas
Salisbury steak was a member request and is pure comfort food - great for cold weather. Not really "steak," the dish is made of lightly seasoned ground beef patties seared in a pan and served with a rich gravy.
Smarts: The gravy served with this version of Salisbury steak includes sliced onions and mushrooms for added depth. If you prefer a smooth gravy, feel free to skip one or both of these additions to the gravy.

Prep
- Onions - (If prepping right before cooking, get potatoes boiling before continuing with prep.) Thinly slice onions. (Can be done up to 5 days ahead)
- Make Salisbury spice mix - Combine salt, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. (Can be done up to 5 days ahead)
- Make gravy mixture - Combine stock, water, Worcestershire sauce, and mustard. (Can be done up to 5 days ahead)
- Mushrooms - Slice mushrooms, if not pre-sliced. (Can be done up to 3 days ahead)
- Form patties - Combine beef with Salisbury spice mix, panko, and ketchup. Form into 4 oval patties (for 4 servings; adjust if customizing). Try not to overwork the mixture as this will make the “steaks” more dense. (Can be done 1 day ahead)
- Potatoes - Peel and cube potatoes.

Make
- Place potatoes into a saucepan and cover with cold water and some salt. Cover and bring to a boil. Simmer uncovered for 12 to 15 minutes until potatoes can be easily pierced by a knife. Drain and let sit in a colander for ~5 minutes to let the steam escape (this creates creamier potatoes vs. liquidy potatoes).
- Use a masher to mash steamed potatoes with sour cream, butter (portion for potatoes), and some salt. Set aside, covered to keep warm.
- Heat a saute pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil and then patties to heated oil. Cook patties on one side until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip patties and continue cooking until cooked to your liking (similar to burgers) - 2 to 3 minutes more for medium-rare, 3 to 4 minutes more for medium, 5 to 6 minutes more for well-done.
- Set patties aside, covered to keep warm. Return pan to heat.
- If the pan is dry, add a splash of oil. Add onions and mushrooms and saute until soft, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Add flour and stir until no dry spots of flour remain, ~2 minutes.
- Pour gravy mixture over onions / mushrooms while whisking. Bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low-medium and simmer gravy until it thickens slightly, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Place frozen peas in a microwave safe bowl and cover with a damp paper towel. Defrost until no longer frozen and then cook on high until heated through, ~1 minute. Remove and toss with butter (portion for peas) and some salt and pepper.
- Serve Salisbury steaks over mashed potatoes with gravy spooned over top. Serve peas on the side. Enjoy!

Really yummy meat, but my gravy didn’t have a lot of flavor. Next time I’ll increase some of the gravy ingredients for more flavor.
0 HelpfulSo good. Relatively easy. I need to perfect my pan frying because the steaks got a LITTLE brown, but otherwise a very good recipe. Will make again.
0 HelpfulThe whole family loved it and went back for seconds. I left out the mushrooms, so the gravy was a little thin, but still delicious. I also made baked sweet potatoes in the microwave instead of mashed potatoes to save time.
