Salisbury Steak with Mushroom Gravy
There are many dishes I’ve had over the years that when I look back, I can’t believe that I thought were so fabulous 😕. As we get older, our tastes change and also evolve in the flavor department, well that’s my case anyway!
One of the best examples I can give is Salisbury Steak! Oh my! When I was a child, I loved 💖 this dish! It was one of my favorites but not so much when I was in my mid-30s. It was okay but nothing to write home about. It was a “simple” dish to make when you didn’t want to complicate things…
Just before I met David, I was going through my old recipes and came across this Salisbury Steak. I looked at it and it just dawned on me… Why was it called a Salisbury “Steak” when the ingredients are almost identical to a regular “plain Jane” hamburger 🍔. Well, this recipe was about to change and get a “flavor boost”!
I didn’t reinvent the wheel but I sure brought this dish a notch higher by adding more flavor and spice to it. I also added a quick, flavorful onion-mushroom 🍄 sauce, elevating this recipe so the meat doesn’t dry out. It’s not super different from the traditional version… just more interesting! Another sauce that can be used instead of this one is the Basic Brown Sauce. Just sauté some mushrooms and add it to the sauce.
I like to serve this with my Mixed Mashed Potatoes recipe and a steamed vegetable. As I mentioned, this recipe is not an “OMG” that you want to serve at your next dinner party but it’s still an amazing dish to enjoy during weeknights. After all, it’s a comfort food 🥰!
Bring back your childhood food memories with this Salisbury Steak recipe by adding a grown up taste to it! It’s unpretentious, quick & easy to make 👩🍳👨🍳 and straightforward! This is the perfect meal to have at home with your slippers on…

- 1/3 cup red onions, finely chopped
- 1 tsp. Montréal Steak seasoning see Recipe
- 1/2 tsp. Herbes de Provence see Recipe
- 1/2 tsp. smoked paprika
- freshly ground black pepper, to taste (I always use mixed peppercorns)
MUSHROOM GRAVY
- 1 1/2 tbsp. olive oil tips & tricks
- 1 cup red onions, sliced (Lyonnaise cut) tips & tricks
- 1 1/2 cups cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 1 small pinch ground Himalayan pink salt
- 1/4 cup red wine
- 2 cups low-sodium beef broth
- freshly ground black pepper, to taste (I always use mixed peppercorns)
- 2 tsp. cornstarch (mixed with 1/2 cup cold water)
- 1 tbsp. chopped parsley, for garnish tips & tricks
Directions
SALISBURY STEAKS
- In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, onions, Montréal Steak seasoning, Herbes de Provence, smoked paprika, and freshly ground black pepper.
- Evenly shape the mixture into 4 oval patties and place them on a plate. Cover with plastic wrap and transfer to the refrigerator for 1 hour.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add oil and when hot, working in batches, add the beef patties; cook 3 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet, place them on a plate, cover loosely with foil and set aside while making the gravy.
MUSHROOM GRAVY
- After the patties are cooked, return the skillet to the burner and add sliced onions - if there's not enough fat, add a little oil. Sauté for 2 minutes.
- Add mushrooms, sprinkle on a pinch of sea salt and sauté for 4 minutes.
- Pour in red wine and cook until the liquid is almost evaporated. Pour in beef broth and freshly ground black pepper. Bring to a boil before reducing to medium; simmer for 5 minutes.
- Return the beef patties to the skillet, reduce the heat to medium low, and simmer until heated through, about 5 minutes.
- Transfer the warmed patties to serving plates, increase the heat to medium-high and pour in cornstarch mixture. Stir until the sauce thickens, less than a minute.
- Spoon the gravy over the patties and sprinkle on fresh chopped parsley. Serve with mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables.
