Description
This classic comfort food features juicy hamburger steaks smothered in a savory onion gravy, making for a perfect dinner that is both hearty and satisfying.
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1/4 cup bread crumbs
- 1 egg
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, bread crumbs, egg, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Form the mixture into 4 to 6 patties, depending on your preferred size.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked through. Remove the patties from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until softened.
- Sprinkle the flour over the onions and cook for an additional minute, stirring constantly.
- Gradually pour in the beef broth while stirring to avoid lumps. Add the soy sauce, thyme, and onion powder. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the gravy thickens.
- Return the hamburger steaks to the skillet and spoon the gravy over the top. Let everything simmer together for 5-7 minutes to meld the flavors.
- Serve the hamburger steaks with the onion gravy on top, paired with mashed potatoes or vegetables.
