Mushroom Salisbury Steak

I got the orginal recipe from Taste of Home's Fast Family Favorites but modified it just a bit. This is one of my family's favorite meals and it freezes nicely also.

• Ready In: 35 mins
• Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 1⁄4 cup cornstarch
• 2 (10 1/2ounce) cans  beef consomme, undiluted
• 8  ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced
• 4  teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1  medium onion, finely chopped
• 1  teaspoon dried basil
• 1  egg, beaten
• 1⁄2 cup  soft breadcrumbs
• 1⁄2 teaspoon seasoning salt
• 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper
• 1 1⁄2 lbs ground beef

Directions

1. In a bowl, combine cornstarch and consomme until smooth. Stir in mushrooms, Worcestershire sauce, onion and basil; set aside.
2. In another bowl, combine egg, bread crumbs, seasoned salt and pepper if desired. Add beef and mix well. Shape into six oval patties; place in a shallow 1-1/2-qt. microwave-safe dish.
3. Cover and microwave on high for 6 minutes; drain. Turn patties, moving the ones in the center to the outside of dish. Pour consomme mixture over patties.
4. Cover and microwave on high for 8-10 minutes or until meat is no longer pink. Let stand for 5 minutes. Serve with potatoes or noodles.
5. I normally make a double batch of these and freeze the other half. If doing this cook up to step 3 and freeze. When ready to eat, pull from freezer and let thaw and continue with step 4.
6. Can also make these on the stovetop.
