Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 cups Cauliflower rice
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 cup Mushrooms, sliced
- 1.5 cups Beef broth
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 0.25 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Green onions, chopped
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. Mix well and divide the mixture into four equal portions. Shape each portion into a patty.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the beef patties for about 4 minutes on each side or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Remove the patties from the skillet and set them aside.
In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of butter. Once melted, add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they are golden brown, about 5 minutes.
Pour the beef broth and soy sauce into the skillet with the mushrooms. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then sprinkle in the xanthan gum. Stir continuously until the sauce begins to thicken, about 1-2 minutes. Return the beef patties to the skillet to warm through.
In a separate pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the cauliflower rice and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Season with a little salt and pepper to taste.
In another pan, melt the remaining tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the pan and fry until the whites are set, and the yolks are cooked to your liking.
To assemble, place a portion of cauliflower rice on each plate. Top with a beef patty and spoon some mushroom gravy over the top. Add a fried egg on top of each patty.
Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
