For the Steaks
- 1 pound ground beef
- ½ cup yellow onion finely chopped
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs *
- 1 large egg beaten
- 1 Tbsp ketchup
- 2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt to taste
- ¼ tsp black pepper to taste
- 1 Tbsp avocado oil for cooking
For The Gravy
- 1 Tbsp avocado oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter or more avocado oil
- 1 cup yellow onion finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 8 ounces cremini mushrooms sliced
- 2 Tbsp gluten-free all-purpose flour or regular all-purpose flour flour**
- 1 1/2 cups beef stock
- 2 tsp dijon mustard
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Make the Hamburger Steak:
Add all of the ingredients for the steaks to a large mixing bowl and use your hands to squish everything together until it is well-combined.
Form 5 beef patties out of the steak mixture.
Heat a large skillet over high heat and add 1 to 2 tablespoons of avocado oil (or cooking oil of choice). Allow the skillet to heat up for a few minutes until it is sizzling hot.
Carefully place the beef patties on the hot skillet and cook for 1 minute, until a golden brown crust forms. Carefully flip the meat patties, and cook for another minute. Transfer the seared hamburger patties to a plate and set them aside (there is no need to cook the patties through just yet).
Make the Gravy:
Place the skillet back onto the burner over medium heat and add the avocado oil and butter to make the gravy.
Add the chopped yellow onion and cook until it begins to soften, about 3 minutes. Add in the mushrooms and garlic and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms begin to sweat and turn slightly brown, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the flour.
Pour the beef broth, dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and black pepper. Bring the gravy to a full but controlled boil.
Place the browned beef patties back into the skillet in a single layer with the gravy and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes. Carefully flip the patties and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, or until the gravy is thick.
Serve Salisbury steaks with your choice of side dishes and enjoy.
*Use regular bread crumbs, Panko breadcrumbs, or gluten-free breadcrumbs. You can replace the breadcrumbs with 1/3 cup of gluten-free all-purpose flour.
**For a paleo option, use 1/2 cup of tapioca flour in the meat mixture and 2 teaspoons of tapioca flour for the gravy.
