Simple Homemade Salisbury Steak Recipe

Ingredients:

* 1 pound freshly ground beef
* 1 medium onion, finely chopped
* 2 cloves garlic, minced
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
* 1/4 teaspoon paprika
* 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
* 2 tablespoons butter
* 2 cups beef broth
* 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
* 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce (optional)

Instructions:
1. Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped onion, garlic, salt, pepper, paprika, and breadcrumbs. Use your hands or a wooden spoon to mix the ingredients until they're just combined. Don't overmix!
2. Divide the meat mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a ball. Flatten each ball slightly into a patty shape.
3. Add the butter to the preheated skillet and swirl it around until melted. Add the patties to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they're cooked to your desired level of doneness.
4. Remove the patties from the skillet and set them aside on a plate. Reduce the heat to medium and add the beef broth to the skillet, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Bring the broth to a simmer.
5. In a small bowl, mix the flour and Worcestershire sauce (if using). Gradually add this mixture to the broth, whisking constantly to avoid lumps.
6. Bring the gravy to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until it thickens to your liking. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
7. Serve the cooked Salisbury Steaks with the rich and savory gravy spooned over the top.

Variations:

* Italian-Style: Add 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley and 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese to the meat mixture for a flavorful twist.
* Mushroom-Gravy: Sauté 1 cup sliced mushrooms in butter until tender, then add them to the beef broth for an earthy and savory gravy.
* Bacon-Topped: Top the patties with 4 slices of crispy cooked bacon during the last minute of cooking for a smoky and indulgent touch.
* Gluten-Free: Replace the all-purpose flour with gluten-free breadcrumbs for a safe and delicious option for those with gluten intolerance.
