    Turkey Salisbury Steaks Ingredients

    • Ground Turkey
    • Panko Crumbs
    • Dry Mustard
    • Garlic Powder
    • Worcestershire Sauce
    • Tomato Paste
    • Salt
    • Black Pepper
    • Salted Butter
    • Olive Oil
    • Onion
    • Mushrooms
    • Beef Broth
    • Corn Starch
    • Water

    Substitution Suggestions:

    • Ground Turkey: Ground beef can be used for a traditional Salisbury steak.
    • Panko Crumbs: Feel free to use homemade or store bought traditional bread crumbs.
    • Tomato Paste: A lot of recipes call for Ketchup and you can use that, I prefer tomato paste because the flavor is more pungent and there is no added sugar.
    • Salted Butter: You can use unsalted butter or substitute with olive oil.
    • Olive Oil: Any neutral oil or butter can be subbed for the olive oil.
    • Mushrooms: I like to use cremini mushrooms, but any fresh mushroom or even a can of mushrooms can be used.
    • Beef Broth: Chicken broth is a great substitute or water and bouillon can be used too.

    What to Serve with Turkey Salisbury Steaks

    We love enjoying these Salisbury steaks over Mashed Potatoes, but they are also very delicious over cooked rice, buttered noodles or riced cauliflower. On the side we enjoy an easy green side salad or one of these tasty side dishes:

    • Roasted Asparagus
    • Roasted Brussels Sprouts
    • Air Fryer Green Beans
    • Roasted Cauliflower and Broccoli
    • Tomato, Cucumber and Basil Salad
    • Garlic Parmesan Sautéed Asparagus

    Storing Ground Turkey Salisbury Steaks

    Storing: Any leftovers can be stored in an air tight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. This recipe is great for making ahead and meal prepping.

    Reheating: Reheat any leftovers in a skillet, on the stove, over low heat or in the microwave until warmed through.

    • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
    • 1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
    • 2½ cups beef broth

    Instructions

    • In a large bowl, combine the steak ingredients: ground turkey, panko crumbs, dry mustard, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, salt and black pepper. Using your hands, mix everything together evenly.

      We eat a minimal amount of red meat. This recipe is perfect for anyone wanting a "steak".The only change I made was adding an extra cup of broth as the gravy was pretty thick. I served it with the mashed spuds and steamed broccoli. So yummy, a definite keeper Thank you for sharing

      Made this tonight! Was excellent! I ended up getting 9 patties out of the meat mixture. Made them a little smaller and used better than bouillon beef broth! Thank you for sharing your recipe!
