Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 0.25 cup Breadcrumbs
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 medium Yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 1.5 cups Beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Water
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently with your hands until just combined; do not overmix.
Divide the meat mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into oval-shaped patties about 1/2 inch thick.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the patties to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until browned. Remove the patties from the skillet and set them aside.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and add butter to the same skillet. Once melted, add the thinly sliced onions and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden brown.
In a small bowl, whisk together the flour and water to make a slurry. Add the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce to the skillet with the onions, and stir in the slurry. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Return the hamburger patties to the skillet, spoon the gravy over them, and cover with a lid. Cook for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the patties are cooked through to an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
Taste the gravy and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper, if needed.
Serve the hamburger steaks hot with the onion gravy drizzled on top. Pair with your favorite sides such as mashed potatoes, rice, or vegetables.
