Hamburger steaks with onion gravy make for a delicious and comforting meal. Here’s a simple recipe for you to try:
Ingredients:
For Hamburger Steaks:
- 1.5 lbs ground beef
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (for cooking)
For Onion Gravy:
- 2 large onions, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups beef broth
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
Hamburger Steaks:
- In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.
- Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape them into oval or round patties, about 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Cook the hamburger steaks for about 4-5 minutes per side or until they are cooked through and browned on the outside. Make sure the internal temperature reaches at least 160°F (71°C).
- Remove the hamburger steaks from the skillet and set them aside.
Onion Gravy:
- In the same skillet, add butter and sliced onions. Cook over medium heat until the onions are soft and golden brown, about 8-10 minutes.
- Sprinkle flour over the onions and stir well to combine. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to remove the raw taste of the flour.
- Slowly add beef broth to the skillet, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
- Season the gravy with salt and pepper to taste. Continue to simmer until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency.
- Place the cooked hamburger steaks back into the skillet, spooning some of the onion gravy over the top. Allow them to simmer in the gravy for a few more minutes to absorb the flavors.
- Serve the hamburger steaks with onion gravy over mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.
