French Onion Salisbury Steak with Garlic Cheese Toast

I really enjoyed how much depth there was to the sauce because of the red wine and tomato paste.  Plus the garlic cheese bread soaked up the sauce and was just delicious!  Add a side of broccoli and you have a great meal.  I also had some fresh rosemary in the fridge and chopped that up when I did the garlic.  It was fantastic on the toast and added just a little more flavor to the sauce.

 

Ingredients


    Steaks:
    1 pound lean ground beef
    1 tablespoons dried parsley
    2 tablespoons green onions, minced
    2 tablespoons whole wheat flour
      Sauce:
      1 tablespoon olive oil
      1 large onion, sliced
      1 teaspoon sugar
      3 cloves of garlic, minced
      1 tablespoon tomato paste
      1/4 cup red wine, dry
      1/2 teaspoon crushed thyme
         Cheese Toast:
        4 slices baguette, 1/2 inch thick, cut diagonally
        2 tablespoons unsalted butter
        1 clove minced garlic
        1/4 cup shredd mozzarella cheese
        1 tablespoon shredded parmesan cheese

      Directions

      For the toast:
      Preheat oven to 400.
      Combine the butter and garlic, spread on one side of the toast. Mix cheeses together and sprinkle over butter. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bread is crispy.


      For the steaks and sauce:
      Mix the beef, parsley, and green onions in a bowl. Shape mixture into four portions and form each into thick (about one inch) patties. Lightly coat each patty with flour, save the remaining flour (you'll need 1 teaspoon). Brown patties in a pan with the olive oil, about three minutes on each side. Remove from the pan and set aside.
      Add the onion, sugar and garlic to the pan, saute for about five minutes, or until the onions start carmelizing. Sitr in the tomato paste and cook for an additonal minute or until the paste begins to brown. Add flour and cook for another minute to thicken, then add broth, wine, and thyme.
      Place the patties back in the pan and bring the sauce to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for ten minutes.
      Serve on the toast.
