Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 large egg
- 0.25 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 large onion
- 2 cups beef broth
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons cold water
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, egg, breadcrumbs, milk, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty about 1/2 inch thick.
Lightly coat each patty with flour, shaking off any excess. Set aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties and sear them for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until browned. Remove the patties from the skillet and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium, then add the butter to the same skillet. Once melted, add the thinly sliced onion and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is soft and caramelized.
Stir in the beef broth and bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet to enhance the flavor of the gravy.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with cold water to create a slurry. Gradually stir this mixture into the simmering broth to thicken the gravy.
Return the hamburger steaks to the skillet, nestling them into the gravy. Cover the skillet and let them simmer over low heat for 10-15 minutes, or until the patties are fully cooked and the gravy has thickened.
Taste the gravy and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
Serve the hamburger steaks hot, generously spooning the onion gravy over the top. Pair with mashed potatoes or rice for a complete meal.
