Juicy Hamburger Steak in Rich Onion Gravy

Ingredients :

• 1 lb ground beef
• 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
• 1 egg
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
• 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
• 1 cup beef broth
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp dried thyme
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2 tbsp butter
• 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions : 

1. Prepare the patties: In a bowl, mix ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, milk, garlic powder, thyme, salt, and pepper until well combined. Shape the mixture into 4 evenly sized patties.
2. Sear the patties: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the hamburger steaks and cook for 3-4 minutes per side until browned. Remove and set aside.
3. Make the onion gravy: In the same skillet, melt the butter. Add the sliced onions and sauté until caramelized, about 8-10 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes until it forms a roux.
4. Simmer the gravy: Slowly whisk in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce, ensuring no lumps. Bring to a simmer and cook until the gravy thickens, about 5 minutes.
5. Combine and serve: Return the hamburger steaks to the skillet, nestling them in the gravy. Simmer for 10-12 minutes until cooked through. Serve hot over mashed potatoes or rice.
