Hamburger Steaks with Onion Gravy Recipe
Ingredients:
- For the Hamburger Steaks:
- 1 1/2 pounds ground beef (80/20 is ideal)
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (for frying)
- For the Onion Gravy:
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
- 2 tablespoons water (if using cornstarch)
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Hamburger Steaks:
- In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, egg, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined.
- Shape the mixture into 4 oval patties.
2. Cook the Hamburger Steaks:
- In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the hamburger patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Remove the patties from the skillet and set aside.
3. Make the Onion Gravy:
- In the same skillet, melt the butter. Add the sliced onion and sauté until they are caramelized and golden brown, about 10-15 minutes.
- Once the onions are cooked, add the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.
- If you prefer a thicker gravy, mix the cornstarch with the water in a small bowl until smooth, then stir it into the gravy. Let it simmer for a few minutes until thickened.
4. Combine and Serve:
- Return the hamburger steaks to the skillet, spooning the gravy over them. Let them simmer in the gravy for a few minutes to heat through.
- Serve the hamburger steaks with onion gravy over mashed potatoes or rice, if desired.
Enjoy!
