Ingredients:
For the Hamburger Steaks:
1 lb ground beef (use lean ground beef for a healthier option)
½ cup breadcrumbs (for added texture)
¼ cup milk (helps to keep the steak tender)
1 egg (binds the ingredients together)
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce (adds a rich, savory depth of flavor)
½ teaspoon garlic powder (for savory warmth)
½ teaspoon onion powder (for a mild, sweet onion flavor)
Salt and pepper, to taste (season generously)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil (for frying)
For the Onion Gravy:
1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup beef broth (for a rich gravy)
1 tablespoon flour (to thicken the gravy)
Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions:
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 well to combine.
Form the Steaks: Shape the mixture into 4-6 oval-shaped patties. Make sure they are uniform in size so they cook evenly.
Cook the Hamburger Steaks: Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the hamburger patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the patties from the skillet and set aside.
Make the Onion Gravy: In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes until they are caramelized and softened.
Thicken the Gravy: Sprinkle the flour over the onions and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly. Gradually add the beef broth, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Simmer for about 5 minutes until the gravy thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve: Return the hamburger patties to the skillet and spoon the onion gravy over the top. Let everything simmer for another 2-3 minutes to combine the flavors.
Enjoy: Serve the hamburger steaks with onion gravy over mashed potatoes, rice, or steamed vegetables for a complete and satisfying meal!
