Smothered Steak Burgers

These just tasted weird. The burger part was good, but the mushrooms tasted off. I thought it was going to be like Salisbury Steak, but it wasn't. D agreed. We both would do the burger again, but not the mushrooms.

We had with Tater Tots.

Smothered Steak Burgers


Sautéed mushrooms, steak sauce, and Worcestershire sauce create robust flavors in this knife-and-fork burger.

Cooking spray
2 tablespoons finely chopped shallots
1 garlic clove, minced
1 (8-ounce) package presliced button mushrooms
1/2 cup fat-free, less-sodium beef broth
1 tablespoon low-sodium steak sauce (such as Angostura)
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 pound ground sirloin
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 green leaf lettuce leaves
4 (1/2-inch-thick) tomato slices
4 (2-ounce) Kaiser rolls, toasted

1. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add shallots and garlic to pan; cook 1 minute or until tender, stirring frequently. Increase heat to medium-high. Add mushrooms to pan; cook 10 minutes or until moisture evaporates, stirring occasionally. Combine broth, steak sauce, and cornstarch, stirring with a whisk. Add broth mixture to pan; bring to a boil. Cook 1 minute or until thickened, stirring constantly. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Remove mushroom mixture from pan; cover and keep warm. Wipe pan with paper towels.

2. Combine remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper, ketchup, and Worcestershire sauce in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk. Add beef to bowl; toss gently to combine. Shape beef mixture into 4 (1/2-inch-thick) patties; sprinkle evenly with salt.

3. Heat pan over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add patties to pan; cook 4 minutes. Turn and cook 3 minutes or until desired degree of doneness. Place 1 lettuce leaf and 1 tomato slice on the bottom half of each roll. Top each serving with 1 patty, about 1/4 cup mushroom mixture, and top half of roll.
