Hamburger Steak with Onions and Gravy is a hearty dish that features seasoned ground beef patties served with a savory onion gravy. Here’s a recipe to make it:
Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground beef (preferably 80/20 lean/fat ratio)
- 1 onion, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil or butter
- 2 cups beef broth
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish, optional)
Instructions:
- Shape and Season the Patties: Divide the ground beef into 4 equal portions and shape each into oval-shaped patties. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
- Cook the Patties: Heat oil or butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until nicely browned and cooked through. Remove the patties from the skillet and set aside.
- Saute Onions and Garlic: In the same skillet, add sliced onions and minced garlic. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until onions are softened and lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes.
- Make the Gravy: Sprinkle flour over the onions and garlic in the skillet. Stir to coat evenly and cook for 1-2 minutes. Gradually add beef broth, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Bring to a simmer and cook until the gravy thickens, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in Worcestershire sauce and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
- Combine and Serve: Return the cooked patties to the skillet, nestling them into the gravy. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes to heat through.
- Garnish and Serve: Garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve the hamburger steaks with onions and gravy hot over mashed potatoes, rice, or alongside your favorite vegetables.
