The other night I was trying to decide on what to fix for supper. I was really wanting a Salisbury steak but the only recipe that I had was for the slow cooker. Not gonna work! I needed a recipe that was a lot faster than that. I really didn’t want to eat at 11 pm at night! So I decided to go ahead and make it in my skillet right on top of the stove. I particularly love that this stovetop Salisbury steak recipe is grain-free….and it’s also Paleo friendly if you skip the mashed potatoes!
It was super easy to make, and tasted really good! I paired mine with mashed potatoes and some mixed vegetables, but you could certainly substitute some mashed cauliflower or mixed veggies for the potatoes if you don’t eat them!
This is definitely a comfort food meal. It’s a classic dish that is perfect for any time of the year. And it has a pretty quick prep time too! So you can have a tasty and healthy meal without having to be in the kitchen for a long time!
This stovetop Salisbury steak recipe is gluten-free and grain-free too. Need a smaller recipe? I have a version of this for two for the slow cooker!
