📝 Preparation Steps
1
For the Steaks
2
Add all of the steak ingredients to a large bowl EXCEPT the ground beef. Whisk together with a fork until thoroughly combined. Add the ground beef and combine with your hands.
3
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions, and pat firmly into oval patties around 3/4”-inch thick. Make a shallow depression/dimple in each patty so the outer border is about a ¼ inch higher than the middle (see pics). This will help them cook more evenly/quickly/not bulge.
4
Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steaks on each side, about ⏱️ 3 minutes total. Transfer steaks to a plate (use a long enough spatula! so they don't fall apart!) but leave the drippings behind. Note: the steaks will NOT be cooked through but will finish cooking in the sauce.

For the Mushrooms (Skip if not using)
6
Melt 1 tablespoons butter with 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat in the leftover drippings. Increase temperature to medium-high and add half of the mushrooms. Give them a stir to evenly coat in the butter then arrange mushrooms in a single layer. Cook mushrooms for ⏱️ 2-3 minutes per side or until golden.

7
Remove mushrooms from skillet with a slotted spoon and repeat with remaining mushrooms; transfer all mushrooms to a plate.
8
For the Gravy
9
To the now empty skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter with 1 tablespoon oil. Add shallots and sauté over medium-high heat for ⏱️ 2-3 minutes to soften.
10
Reduce heat to low, add garlic and red pepper flakes and sauté for ⏱️ 30 seconds. Add flour and cook for ⏱️ 1 minute, scraping up the browned bits on the bottom of the pan.
11
Slowly whisk in beef broth and all remaining gravy ingredients. Whisk until most of the lumps are gone.
12
To cook
13
Add the partially cooked steaks back to the skillet (use a long enough spatula) and nestle into the gravy (it’s okay if most of the gravy covers them).
14
Bring to a simmer over high heat then reduce to medium. Cook for ⏱️ 5-7 minutes or until the internal temperature of the steaks reaches 160 degrees F, stirring occasionally around the steaks. If the gravy thickens too quickly, add additional broth.
15
Once the steaks are done, stir in the mushrooms.
16
To Serve
17
Serve Salisbury Steaks topped with the mushroom gravy over mashed potatoes (the BEST), noodles or rice. Season with freshly cracked salt and pepper to taste.
