Hamburger Steak Recipe
Juicy hamburger steak smothered in rich mushroom and onion gravy makes a hearty, comforting dinner that’s ready with simple ingredients you already have on hand.
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef 80/20
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion thinly sliced
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 tablespoon butter
- Optional: fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix gently and form into 4 patties.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sear patties for about 4–5 minutes per side until browned. Transfer to a plate.
- In the same skillet, add butter, sliced onions, and mushrooms. Cook until softened, about 5–6 minutes.
- Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and stir until the flour is absorbed and slightly golden.
- Gradually whisk in beef broth, stirring constantly until the gravy thickens, about 3–4 minutes.
- Return the patties to the skillet, spoon gravy over them, cover, and simmer on low for another 10–12 minutes until cooked through.
- Garnish with chopped parsley if desired and serve hot with mashed potatoes or rice.
Notes
- For extra flavor, use a mix of ground beef and ground pork.
- If you don’t like mushrooms, simply use more onions for the gravy.
- Leftovers keep well in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat beautifully.
