Hamburger Steaks with Onion Gravy
Ingredients
For the Hamburger Steaks:
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 cup bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 egg
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon oil (for frying)
For the Onion Gravy:
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Hamburger Steaks:
- In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, bread crumbs, milk, egg, chopped onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined.
- Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked through. Remove the patties from the skillet and set them aside.
- Make the Onion Gravy:
- In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Add the sliced onions and cook until they are softened and caramelized, about 10 minutes.
- Sprinkle the flour over the onions and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Gradually whisk in the beef broth, making sure there are no lumps.
- Add the Worcestershire sauce and bring the gravy to a simmer. Cook until the gravy thickens, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Combine and Serve:
- Return the hamburger steaks to the skillet with the onion gravy. Spoon some of the gravy over the steaks and let them simmer in the gravy for an additional 5 minutes to heat through.
- Serve the hamburger steaks hot with the onion gravy spooned over the top.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the hamburger steaks with mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles to soak up the delicious onion gravy. Add a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh salad to complete the meal.
