SALISBURY STEAK WITH
ONION GRAVY
I have made this meal with mushroom gravy and one day I was
really in the mood for Salisbury steak as was my husband, however, I didn’t
have any mushrooms in the house! This
recipe was the result. It was excellent
and for those who don’t like mushrooms, this is a very tasty alternative.
3 lbs ground beef (1.4
kg)
6 tbsp fresh parsley, minced,
OR (90 mL)
3 tbsp dried parsley (45 mL)
2 tbsp coconut flour (30 mL)
1 tbsp minced garlic (15 mL)
2 eggs
2 tsp Montreal® Steak Seasoning (10 mL)
11/4 tsp salt (6 mL)
1 tsp black pepper (5 mL)
1/4 cup butter, OR bacon fat (60 mL)
Onion Gravy:
1 tbsp butter, OR bacon fat
(15 mL)
2 cups chopped onions (500
mL)
8 oz cream cheese, chopped up
(250 g)
3 cups chicken stock, OR beef
stock* (750 mL)
2 tbsp olive oil (30 mL)
1/4 tsp salt (1 mL)
1/4 tsp white pepper (1 mL)
1 tsp cornstarch, OR
arrowroot powder (5 mL)
In large bowl, combine
ground beef, parsley, coconut flour and garlic.
In small bowl, beat eggs with a fork and add Montreal® Steak Seasoning, salt and black pepper. Beat again with the fork to combine. Add to ground beef mixture and combine very
well, using your hands. Make 20 oblong
patties (I didn’t worry about the shape too much). I believe I used an ice cream scoop for each
patty.
In nonstick frying
pan, over medium heat and in some butter, fry the patties until they are brown
on both sides and almost cooked through, but not quite.
In large pot, in
butter and over medium heat, cook onions until soft. Remove and set aside. In the same pot, combine cream cheese,
chicken stock, olive oil, salt and white pepper and cook over medium heat. Place some of the sauce in a small bowl and
stir in the cornstarch, OR arrowroot powder and add back to the pot, stirring
to combine. Bring the sauce to a
boil. Add the patties and onions. Simmer 10 minutes.

Hints: *I only ever have homemade chicken stock on
hand in the freezer and that is what I used.
It was perfectly yummy with this dish and no one can tell it has chicken
flavor. If you use commercial stock/broth,
you might want to reduce the salt in this dish. It is so easy to make homemade
chicken stock if you have a slow cooker or a pressure cooker. Place rotisserie chicken carcass in the slow
cooker or pressure cooker along with a chopped onion, carrot, some dried parsley,
thyme (optional), salt and pepper. Cover
with water completely. Set on low heat
for 8 hours and follow directions for the pressure cooker. Strain and place in a container in the
freezer.
