Have you ever tried something so delicious you can barely stand it This is one of those recipes. When you make this Recipe you’ll feel like you’ve died and gone to heaven.

One of those comfort food favorites that never goes out of style. It’s quick to make, inexpensive, and is popular with kids and adults alike! This homemade version is WAY better than the kind you’ll typically find in the freezer section of your grocery store.

The first step to making Salisbury steak is to form your meat patties. I like to use a 90% lean ground beef, because it has a lot of flavor but it’s not overly greasy. The meat is mixed with breadcrumbs and seasonings, then formed into oval shaped “steaks”.

The patties are cooked to golden brown, and then a simple gravy is made with onions, mushrooms, beef broth and a little cornstarch which is used as a thickener. I typically use white button mushrooms, but other mushroom varieties like cremini mushrooms would also be a great choice. I make it easy on myself by purchasing the pre-sliced mushrooms to save on some prep time.To Make this Recipe You’ Will Need the following ingredients:

Instructions

Mix ground beef, onion, carrots, garlic powder, egg white, salt and pepper well in a large bowl.

Shape mixture into four ¾-inch (2 cm) thick patties. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake in a preheated 425°F (220°C) oven for 10 minutes on each side. Meanwhile, prepare the wine and mushroom sauce.

Remove patties from oven and place in sauce; cover and continue cooking for 5 minutes or until a digital rapid-read thermometer inserted into the side of each patty registers at least 160°F (71°C).

Serve each galette topped with wine and mushroom sauce, accompanied by mashed potatoes and seasonal vegetables.
