Salisbury Steak with Easy Mushroom Gravy

By AuntieLo

An easy, homemade salisbury steak recipe that's made in the Instant Pot. Serve the steak and gravy over mashed potatoes.

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 lbs ground beef preferably grass-fed
• 3 TB whole milk I've used whole milk and cashew milk
• 1 TB Worcestershire sauce I like Annie's brand
• 1 garlic clove minced
• 1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs* unseasoned
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 1/2 tsp paprika I used smoked paprika
• 1 TB butter ghee or oil may work
• 8 ounces baby portobella mushrooms sliced
• 1 medium yellow onion thinly sliced
• 2 cups beef broth**
• 1 TB tomato paste
• 1 TB dijon mustard
• 2 TB minced fresh parsley
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp thyme
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 2-3 TB water***
• 2-3 TB organic corn starch

Preparation

Step 1

Instructions

Add all the steak ingredients, except the butter, to a large mixing bowl. Combine the ingredients with your hands, being sure not to over-mix. Shape into 6 patties and set on a platter.

Let the steaks rest (for breadcrumbs to absorb moisture) while slicing the mushrooms and onion.

Whisk the gravy ingredients together, except the cornstarch and water, and set aside.

Set the Instant Pot to Saute, Normal Temperature. Once hot, add the butter. Brown the steaks on both sides, in batches (about 2 minutes). Wash the platter, and return the steaks to the platter. Set aside.

Add the mushrooms and onions to the Instant Pot, and saute lightly for two minutes. Add the gravy mixture to the pot, and scrape the bottom of the pot to loosen any bits (bits = flavor!).

Press the Cancel button and add the steaks on top of the mushrooms and onions. It's okay if they overlap in the pot.

Lock the lid on and set the Instant Pot to Manual High Pressure for 15 minutes. The valve on top should be set to Sealed. When the cooking time ends, let the pressure release naturally for 15 minutes. Then perform a quick release (turn the valve on the top to Venting) to be able to open the lid.

Remove the steaks to the serving platter.

Whisk the cornstarch into the cold water. Then add the mixture to the gravy in the Instant Pot, whisking to avoid lumps. Saute the gravy until you reach the desired thickness (about 5 minutes for me). Pour the gravy over the steaks.

Serve the steak and gravy with mashed potatoes (recipe coming later this week) or egg noodles--Jovial makes great egg noodles. I've also been serving this meal with an easy side salad.
