Hamburger Steak with Onions and Gravy is a comforting and hearty dish featuring seasoned beef patties simmered in a savory onion gravy. Ideal for a fulfilling homemade meal.
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef (80/20 preferred)
- ¼ cup breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 medium yellow onions, thinly sliced
- 2 cups beef broth
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme (optional)
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with water (optional, for thickening)
Instructions
- Mix ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a large bowl without overmixing.
- Shape the mixture into four equal-sized patties.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the patties for 4–5 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
- In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté onions until soft and caramelized, about 10–15 minutes.
- Sprinkle flour over the onions and cook for 2–3 minutes while stirring.
- Gradually add beef broth, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Add Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and thyme.
- Simmer the gravy until thickened, about 5–7 minutes. Add cornstarch mixture if a thicker gravy is desired.
- Return patties to the skillet and simmer in the gravy for 5 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Notes
- Use 80/20 ground beef for juicier patties.
- Do not overmix the beef to keep patties tender.
- Adjust thickness of gravy with cornstarch as needed.
