Dairy Free Easy Salisbury Steak

Total time40 min

Prep time15 min

Cook time25 min

Seared beef patties, packed with garlic and onion powder and a savory hit of Worcestershire, get browned deep and craggy in a hot skillet before they're nestled into a rich mushroom gravy. Sliced cremini mushrooms and onions cook down until golden and jammy, then simmer with beef broth, a touch of tomato paste, and more Worcestershire until the gravy turns glossy and thick enough to blanket every bite. It's the kind of comforting, old-school skillet dinner that tastes like it simmered all afternoon, even though it comes together in under 30 minutes. A scatter of fresh parsley at the end brightens the whole plate. This one holds up beautifully as a dairy free dinner option, delivering all that classic diner-style richness without missing a beat. Serve it over mashed potatoes or rice to soak up every last bit of gravy.

Chef's tip
Use a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one.
8 oz cremini mushrooms, thinly sliced
1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsp all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups low-sodium beef broth
1 tbsp worcestershire sauce
1 tsp tomato paste
salt and pepper, to taste

For serving

2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix with your hands until just combined — do not overwork. Divide into 4 equal portions and shape each into an oval patty about 3/4 inch thick.
2
Heat the vegetable oil in a large (12-inch) skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the patties and sear undisturbed for 3–4 minutes per side, until deeply browned on both sides and the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) on an instant-read thermometer. Transfer the patties to a plate and set aside.
