Print Recipe

A comforting dish of juicy hamburger steaks paired with rich gravy, perfect for busy weeknights.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 ½ lbs ground beef (85% lean)
  • 4 tablespoons frozen butter, shredded
  • ½ cup yellow onion, very finely minced
  • 2 teaspoons yellow mustard
  • 3 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 yellow onions, sliced into ¾-inch strings
  • 3 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, divided
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoons Worcestershire sauce (for gravy)
  • ¼ cup cold water + 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine finely minced yellow onion, shredded frozen butter, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and ground beef. Mix lightly to avoid tough patties.
  2. Form the meat into evenly sized oval patties and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
  3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season patties with salt and pepper and sear each side for 2 to 3 minutes until browned. Remove patties from the skillet.
  4. Reduce heat to medium-low, add 2 tablespoons butter, and caramelize sliced onions for 15-20 minutes.
  5. Add chicken broth, beef broth, onion powder, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce to the onions, stirring well.
  6. Whisk cold water and cornstarch until smooth, bring gravy mixture to a boil, and whisk in cornstarch mixture to thicken.
  7. Return the patties to the skillet, spoon gravy over, cover, and simmer for about 10 minutes.
  8. Stir in remaining tablespoon of cold butter for a glossy finish, garnish with parsley, and serve over mashed potatoes or rice.

Notes

For added flavor, consider variations like adding mushrooms or cheese. Can be served with mashed potatoes, rice, or sautéed vegetables.
