Ingredients
For the Hamburger Steaks
- 1 pound ground beef (80/20 is ideal)
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- to taste Salt and pepper
For the Onion Gravy
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- to taste Salt and pepper
Instructions
Preparation
- In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix until everything is just combined.
- Form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties. Create a small indent in the center of each patty with your thumb.
Cooking
- In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook for about 5 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through.
- Remove the patties from the pan and set them aside.
- In the same skillet, add the sliced onions and cook them until they’re soft and golden brown (about 5-7 minutes). Sprinkle the flour over the onions and stir to coat.
- Gradually whisk in the beef broth and soy sauce, bringing the mixture to a simmer. Allow it to thicken (about 5 minutes).
- Once the gravy is smooth, return the hamburger steaks to the skillet, spooning the onion gravy over them. Let them simmer together for a couple of minutes.
Notes
Don’t skip the indent for patties to prevent bulges. For a smooth gravy, stir continuously. You can prepare the hamburger steak mixture a day in advance.
