Homemade Salisbury Steak with Mashed Potatoes and Green Beans

Ingredients:

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 cup breadcrumbs
• 1/4 cup ketchup
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1/2 cup finely chopped onions
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• Salt and pepper, to taste

For the Gravy:

• 1 can beef gravy
• 1 tablespoon Dijon Mustard
• 1/4 cup beef broth
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional, for thickening)

For the Sides:

• Mashed potatoes
• Green beans, steamed or sautéed

Instructions:

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, chopped onions, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
2. Shape the mixture into oval-shaped patties.
3. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant.
4. Place the beef patties in the skillet and cook until browned on both sides and cooked through. This should take about 4-5 minutes per side. Once cooked, remove the patties from the pan and set aside.
5. In the same skillet, without removing the grease, add the can of beef gravy, Dijon Mustard, beef broth, and cornstarch (if desired for thickening). Stir well to combine.
6. Bring the gravy mixture to a simmer. Once simmering, add the beef patties back into the pan.
7. Baste the patties with the gravy until it thickens to your liking. Continue cooking for an additional 5-7 minutes.
8. While the patties are simmering in the gravy, prepare mashed potatoes and steam or sauté green beans as desired.
9. Serve the Salisbury steak patties over a bed of mashed potatoes, with green beans on the side. Spoon extra gravy over the top.
10. Enjoy your homemade Salisbury steak with all the fixings! Your happy husband is sure to love this comforting and delicious meal.
