Salisbury Steak

I do not remember where I got this recipe, but I love it. 

1 envelope onion soup mix

2 cups of H20

1 1/2 pounds ground beef-or venison, or elk

1/4 chopped parsley, loose packed

1/4 cup flour

1 1/2 T butter

one large onion, peeled, halved, and sliced

12 oz white button or crimini mushrooms. sliced

1 beef bouilion cube, or granules. I like granules, and I like more than that in it.

Mix 2 T of the soup mix, 1/4 cup of water, in a bowl. Add in the parsley, and ground meat. Mix well. SHape into 4 patties, 2/3 inch thick. Coat with 1 1/2 T flour. Melt butter, add patties to pan, cook until crusty on the outside, and no longer pink in the middle. Remove from pan, cover to keep warm. Add onions and mushrooms to pan, add 1/4 cup water. Stir, reduce heat. Cover and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Mix together remaining soup mix, flour, beef granules, and water. Add to pan. Stir frequently until thickened. Add patties back to pan. Turn gently to coat with gravy. Enjoy.

I never really time anything.  And I use more than 1 1/2 T of flour to coat the patties. But dont take away from the remaining flour, or it wont thicken right. Its really yummy with mashed potatoes, and whatever vegi is sounding yummy!
