# What You’ll Need:
→ Hamburger Steaks
01 -
1 tablespoon olive oil
02 -
2 pounds ground beef
03 -
2 large eggs
04 -
1 cup Panko breadcrumbs or regular breadcrumbs
05 -
1 ounce packet dried onion soup mix (reserve half for gravy)
→ Gravy
06 -
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
07 -
¾ cup all-purpose flour
08 -
Remaining half of onion soup mix packet
09 -
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
10 -
2 cups water
11 -
1½ cups 2% milk
# Steps to Follow:
01 -
In a large bowl, mix ground beef, eggs, breadcrumbs, and half the onion soup mix until thoroughly combined.
02 -
Shape the mixture into four equal patties or smaller if preferred for quicker cooking.
03 -
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add patties and cook, flipping once, until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C), approximately 12-15 minutes. Cover the skillet to reduce cooking time if desired.
04 -
Transfer cooked patties to a plate and set aside. Leave the drippings in the skillet for gravy preparation.
05 -
Reduce heat to medium, add butter to the skillet and melt. Stir in flour, Worcestershire sauce, and remaining onion soup mix, whisking continuously to form a roux with a lumpy texture.
06 -
Slowly pour in water and milk while whisking to eliminate lumps. Continue cooking and whisking until the gravy thickens to a smooth consistency.
07 -
Return patties to the skillet, spoon gravy over the top to coat evenly, and serve immediately.
# Helpful Hints:
01 -
For faster cooking, form smaller patties. Using a lid while cooking helps retain heat and reduces cooking time.
