Start by introducing the recipe and stating the intention to make Salisbury steak.

Use 2 lbs of lean ground beef, mentioning that 85/15 or other blends can be used.

Measure out 1/2 cup of seasoned breadcrumbs, noting the lack of homemade breadcrumbs.

Crack 1 egg into a bowl with 1/2 cup of milk.

Add 2 tbsp of Worcestershire sauce, 1 tsp of salt, and 1 tsp of pepper to the egg and milk mixture.

Mix the egg, milk, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper together.

Let the mixture sit for about 5-10 minutes to absorb flavors.

Chop 1 large onion into slices, aiming for stringy pieces.

Clean 2-3 white mushrooms by brushing them with a paper towel and slice them.

Combine the beef mixture with the breadcrumb mixture and mix well.

Portion out the meat mixture into 6 patties, shaping them into football-like shapes.

Heat a frying pan and add a little olive oil to prevent sticking.

Place the patties in the hot pan, ensuring they sizzle upon contact.

Brown the patties on both sides for about 4-5 minutes on medium-high heat, checking for easy movement to indicate browning.
