Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine lean ground beef, bread crumbs, ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix by hand until everything is thoroughly combined.
  2. Place a large skillet over medium heat and add a splash of olive oil. Allow the oil to heat up for about 2 minutes.
  3. Shape the meat mixture into four patties. Once the skillet is hot, carefully place the patties in the pan. Cook them for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  4. Reduce the heat to low after removing the patties from the skillet. Whisk together the brown gravy mix and hot water until smooth, adding extra ketchup and Worcestershire sauce.
  5. Return the cooked patties to the skillet with the gravy and let them simmer over low heat for about 5 minutes.
  6. Serve your Simple Salisbury Steak warm with creamy mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables.
