INSTRUCTIONS:
Start by chopping the onion and mushrooms…
Chop the onion, then take about 1/4 cup of it and finely chop.
Add the 1/4 cup to a large bowl.
Set the rest aside for the gravy.
Finely chop one cup of mushrooms and add to the large bowl.
Slice about 2 and 1/2 cups mushrooms and set aside to use for the gravy…
In a large bowl combine the 1/4 cup finely chopped onion and 1 cup finely chopped mushrooms…
Add ground beef, 1 egg, panko breadcrumbs, tomato paste, whole grain mustard, 1 teaspoon garlic, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1/4 teaspoon liquid smoke, 1 and 1/4 teaspoons salt, 3/4 teaspoon pepper, and 1 teaspoon onion powder….
Use your hands to combine the meat….
Shape the meat mixture into 6 oval shaped patties.
Heat a large skillet over medium high heat.
Add 1 tablespoon oil and swirl to coat…
When the oil shimmers, add as many meat patties as will comfortably fit on your pan.
Sear the meat for about 2-minutes, and when they are nice and browned use a spatula to flip them over.
Sear the other side until browned, about another 2-minutes.
It’s okay if the patties are not cooked all the way in the middle.
Remove the patties (or « steaks ») to a plate and add 1 tablespoon butter to the hot skillet.
Add the onions and sliced mushrooms that you prepared earlier.
Sauté for about 5-minutes.
Add garlic and saute another minute.
In a glass measuring cup, whisk together the beef broth and flour.
Add the broth mixture to the skillet.
Add 1 teaspoon mustard and 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce.
Stir and cook for a couple minutes until the mixture begins to simmer.
Add the steaks back to the pan.
Turn the heat to a low simmer and cook for another 5-minutes or so, until the salisbury steaks are cooked through.
Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve with Mashed Potatoes.
