Salisbury steak meatballs

 These were amazing.  Made them last night however i am not good at making meatballs and keeping them round.  Yesterday's issue I think was that they were too wet...I needed more Panko.  But they were wonderful, especially over mashed potatoes.

Coated in a rich brown gravy with little bits of onion and then topped with fresh chopped parsley, these delicious Salisbury Steak Meatballs are the ultimate classic comfort food. It’s a super easy 2-step recipe that your whole family will love!

For Meatballs

• ▢ 1½ pound ground beef (lean)
• ▢ ½ cup breadcrumbs (I used Panko)
• ▢ 1 egg
• ▢ ¼ cup ketchup
• ▢ ¼ cup mustard (coarse grain )
• ▢ 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• ▢ 1 teaspoon seasoning salt
• ▢ ½ teaspoon pepper
• ▢ 1 teaspoon onion powder
• ▢ 2 tablespoons olive oil (for frying)

For Gravy

• ▢ 2 tablespoons butter (unsalted)
• ▢ 1 large onion (chopped)
• ▢ 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (or cornstarch)
• ▢ 1 cup beef broth (or chicken broth, low sodium or no sodium added)
• ▢ 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• ▢ ½ teaspoon seasoning salt
• ▢ 1 tablespoon ketchup
• ▢ 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Add all the meatball ingredients (excluding the olive oil) to a large bowl and mix well, use your hands. 

Shape into 1 inch meatballs. You should get about 30 meatballs

Add the olive oil to a large skillet and heat over medium to 

high heat. Add meatballs and cook. If you're using a 

large skillet all meatballs should fit in one batch 

otherwise, you might have to fry them in a couple 

batches. Cook the meatballs on all sides, add more

 oil if needed. Remove meatballs from skillet and set aside.

OR

Oven

Besides frying or air frying, you could also bake the meatballs. I bake meatballs all the time and they turn out great. To bake them, coat a baking sheet with cooking spray, or use a baking rack. Bake at 375°F for 30 minutes until golden brown.

To the same skillet add butter and melt. Add onion and cook until onion is soft and translucent. 

Sprinkle the flour over the onion and stir. Cook for about

 1 minute to remove the raw flour taste. (If using 

cornstarch make a slurry with equal amounts water

 and cornstarch) Add broth and remaining gravy 

ingredients to skillet, and cook for about 3 to 5 minutes, 

sauce should thicken. If the sauce is too thick add a 

bit more beef broth. Taste for seasoning and adjust 

as necessary.

When the gravy is done add the meatballs back to 

the skillet and toss them around so they're covered in

the gravy. Garnish with parsley.
