Receta Slow Cooker Chopped Steak with Onion Mushroom Gravy
Slow Cooker Chopped Steak with Onion Mushroom GravyAn excellent weekday ground beef dinner reminiscent of salisbury steak, but much easier.
This was one of my late husband's favorites!
I used to make this stovetop all the time, but decided to give it a go in the slow cooker. I had my doubts about the meat staying whole and not falling apart, but figured if it did, I would serve it over rice and just be done with it.
Gravy makes itselfNeedless to say, the patties stayed whole and I was delighted! This made a nice comfort meal for me for a tag-end-of-winter night.
Browning the meat is not an option in this recipe--you have to do it! Cooking raw ground beef in a slow cooker is not recommended. Plus, the patties will definitely fall apart if you don't.
I used low sodium stock cubes and soup in this. Sometimes this type of fare can end up a tad salty for my taste, so I err on the side of less remembering I can always add salt if I need it.
Nice weeknight meal--easy too!There's plenty of delicious gravy that makes itself, I might add, so serving this with rice or mashed potatoes would really be recommended. I served one with jasmine rice and it was out of this world!
- Chopped Steak with Onion Mushroom Gravy 1 lb very lean ground beef
- 2 low-sodium beef stock cubes, crushed*
- 2 tbs instant minced onion
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 cup plain bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 can (10.75 oz) low sodium cream of mushroom soup*
- 1 can (10.75 oz) condensed French onion soup
- 1 pkg brown gravy mix
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 2 tbs water
- 1 tbs oil
- 1/4 cup flour
*Regular soup and stock cubes may be used if you wish.
Add the bread crumbs, instant onions, garlic powder, crushed stock cubes and milk in a medium bowl. Mix and let stand about 5 minutes.
Mix ground beef into the bread crumb mixture, mixing well. Form into 4 thin burgers.
Heat a large skillet over high heat and add oil.
Dust burgers with the flour then add to hot skillet. Brown for about 1 minute each side--you aren't cooking the meat, just quickly browning.
Place browned burgers in the bottom of a slow cooker (I used a 5 quart), stacking if necessary.
Mix the soups, mushrooms, gravy mix and water in a small bowl. Pour over burgers.
Cover and cook on LOW 6-8 hours.
