Ingredients
  

Main
  • 4 1/4-lb. ground beef patties
  • 1/2 teaspoon peppered seasoned salt
  • 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion 1 medium
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 4.5-oz. jar sliced mushrooms, drained
  • 1 12-oz. jar beef gravy

Equipment

  • 1 Large Skillet or Frying Pan For browning patties and simmering gravy.
  • 1 Spatula For flipping patties and stirring ingredients.
  • 1 Cutting Board For preparing the onion.
  • 1 Chef's Knife For chopping the onion.
  • 1 Measuring Spoons For accurate seasoning and sauce additions.

Method
 

  1. Season the ground beef patties generously with peppered seasoned salt on both sides.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place the seasoned patties in the skillet and cook for 3-5 minutes per side, or until nicely browned and cooked through. Remove the patties from the skillet and set them aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and frozen mixed vegetables. Sauté for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened and translucent, and the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  4. Stir in the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and drained sliced mushrooms into the skillet with the vegetables. Cook for 1 minute, allowing the flavors to meld.
  5. Pour in the beef gravy, stirring well to combine all ingredients thoroughly. Bring the gravy mixture to a gentle simmer.
  6. Carefully return the cooked beef patties to the skillet, nestling them into the simmering gravy and vegetable mixture.
  7. Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let it simmer for 5-7 minutes. This allows the patties to absorb the rich flavors of the gravy and ensures they are heated through.
  8. Taste the gravy and adjust seasoning if necessary.
  9. Serve the Veggie Salisbury Steak hot, spooning the flavorful gravy and vegetables over each patty.

Notes

For enhanced flavor, ensure the beef patties are well-browned on both sides to develop a deep, savory crust before adding them to the gravy. Do not overcrowd the skillet when browning the patties. Sauté the onions until translucent and the mixed vegetables are tender-crisp; overcooking can lead to mushy textures. Adjust the consistency of the gravy by adding a splash of beef broth or water if it becomes too thick during simmering. A pinch of fresh thyme or a bay leaf added to the gravy can introduce an aromatic depth. Serve this dish with creamy mashed potatoes or steamed rice to soak up the delicious gravy.
