Instant Pot Salisbury Steak with Onion and Mushroom Gravy

Recipe View In a large bowl, gently combine bread crumbs, diced onion, egg, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, and minced garlic. Add ground beef and pork, mixing lightly to avoid overworking the meat. Form into 8 equal patties. Place patties on a plate, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking. (Prep time: 20 minutes + 1 hour chilling)

Recipe View Turn on your multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot) and select the 'Sauté' function. Add avocado oil. Once heated, add patties in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Sauté each side for approximately 2 minutes until browned. Transfer the cooked patties to a plate. (Cook time: 10 minutes)

Recipe View Add the thinly sliced onions to the pot and sauté until softened and lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add sliced cremini mushrooms and cook for another 2 minutes, allowing them to release their moisture and deepen in flavor. (Cook time: 4 minutes)

Recipe View Pour dry red wine into the pot, stirring to deglaze the bottom and scrape up any flavorful browned bits. Add beef broth, tomato paste, salt, and black pepper; stir well to combine. Return the cooked patties to the pot, nestling them into the gravy to coat. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

Recipe View Close and lock the lid of the Instant Pot. Select the 'High Pressure' setting according to the manufacturer's instructions; set the timer for 15 minutes. Allow 10-15 minutes for the pressure to build. (Cook time: 15 minutes + 10-15 minutes pressure build)

Recipe View Allow the pressure to release naturally for 10-40 minutes according to the manufacturer's instructions. Once the pressure has fully released, carefully unlock and remove the lid. (Release time: 10-40 minutes)

Recipe View In a small bowl, whisk together 4 tablespoons of beef broth and cornstarch until smooth to create a slurry. Slowly add the slurry to the pot, stirring constantly. Select the 'Sauté' function again and cook until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency, about 5 minutes. Serve hot over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles. (Cook time: 5 minutes)
