Ingredients:
– 1 pound ground beef (80% lean)
– 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
– 1/4 cup milk
– 1 large egg
– 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 2 large onions, thinly sliced
– 2 cups beef broth
– 1 tablespoon soy sauce
– 1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Hamburger Steaks:
– In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
– Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
– Shape the mixture into 4 oval patties.
2. Cook the Patties:
– Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
– Add the hamburger patties to the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked through. Remove the patties from the skillet and set aside.
3. Make the Onion Gravy:
– In the same skillet, add the sliced onions and cook over medium heat until they are soft and caramelized, about 10-15 minutes.
– Stir in the beef broth and soy sauce, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
– Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 5 minutes.
4. Thicken the Gravy (Optional):
– If you prefer a thicker gravy, mix the cornstarch with a little water to create a slurry.
– Stir the slurry into the gravy and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until thickened.
5. Combine and Serve:
– Return the hamburger steaks to the skillet, spooning the onion gravy over them.
– Let them simmer together for a couple of minutes to meld the flavors.
