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 Sauté Pan For browning patties and simmering gravy.
  • 1 Chef's Knife For chopping onion.
  • 1 Cutting Board For preparing vegetables.
  • 1 Spatula or Tongs For handling patties.
  • 1 Mixing Spoon For stirring gravy and vegetables.

Method
 

  1. Season the ground beef patties generously with the peppered seasoned salt.
  2. In a large skillet, brown the seasoned patties over medium-high heat for 3-5 minutes per side, until a deep crust forms. Remove the browned patties from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Add the chopped onion to the same skillet and sauté over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, until softened and translucent.
  4. Stir in the frozen mixed vegetables and drained sliced mushrooms into the skillet with the onions, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  5. Pour in the beef gravy, ketchup, and Worcestershire sauce, stirring well to combine all ingredients.
  6. Bring the gravy mixture to a gentle simmer, ensuring all flavors are well integrated.
  7. Return the browned beef patties to the skillet, nestling them into the simmering gravy.
  8. Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let it simmer for 5-7 minutes, allowing the patties to heat through and absorb the rich flavors of the gravy.
  9. Taste the gravy and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if desired.
  10. Serve the Veggie Salisbury Steak hot, accompanied by your favorite side dish.

Notes

For optimal flavor, ensure the ground beef patties achieve a good sear, developing a rich, browned crust before simmering; avoid overcrowding the pan. To elevate the gravy, consider deglazing the pan with a splash of beef broth or red wine after browning the patties. While the recipe uses frozen vegetables, adding fresh, lightly blanched vegetables towards the end can offer superior texture and vibrant color. A touch of fresh thyme or rosemary added to the gravy during simmering will enhance its aromatics. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed before serving. This dish pairs exceptionally well with creamy mashed potatoes or fluffy rice to absorb the luscious gravy.
