Hamburger Steaks with Onion Gravy is a classic comfort dish—juicy beef patties cooked in a rich onion gravy. 🍔🧅🥘

Ingredients

For the Hamburger Steaks

• 1 lb ground beef
• ¼ cup breadcrumbs
• 1 egg
• ½ tsp garlic powder
• ½ tsp black pepper
• ½ tsp salt
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

For the Onion Gravy

• 2 tbsp butter
• 1 large onion, sliced
• 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
• 2 cups beef broth
• Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Prepare the patties:
   In a bowl, mix ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, garlic powder, black pepper, salt, and Worcestershire sauce.
2. Form patties:
   Shape the mixture into 4 oval hamburger steaks.
3. Cook the steaks:
   Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook patties about 4–5 minutes per side until browned. Remove and set aside.
4. Cook the onions:
   In the same skillet, melt butter and cook sliced onions until soft and lightly caramelized.
5. Make the gravy:
   Sprinkle flour over the onions and stir for 1 minute. Slowly add beef broth while stirring to avoid lumps.
6. Simmer:
   Return the hamburger steaks to the pan and simmer 10–15 minutes until the gravy thickens and the steaks are fully cooked.
