Description
A comforting dish featuring savory beef patties smothered in rich gravy, perfect for family dinners.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs Ground beef (80/20 blend for best flavor)
- 1/2 cup Breadcrumbs (Plain or seasoned)
- 1 Egg (Beaten)
- 1 Onion (Finely diced)
- 2 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- 3 tbsp Butter (Salted or unsalted)
- 3 tbsp All-purpose flour (For thickening gravy)
- 2 cups Beef broth (Low sodium preferred)
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 Onion (Sliced)
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, beaten egg, finely diced onion, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until well combined.
- Shape the mixture into 6-8 oval patties and allow them to rest while you prepare the gravy.
- Heat an oven-safe skillet over medium heat and melt a touch of butter. Brown the patties for about 3-4 minutes per side until they are golden brown. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, sauté the sliced onions in the remaining butter until soft. Sprinkle in the flour, stirring for about 2 minutes until lightly browned.
- Gradually whisk in the beef broth and heavy cream until the mixture is smooth and cohesive.
- Return the browned patties to the skillet, ensuring they are partially submerged in the savory gravy.
- Cover the skillet tightly and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 45 minutes. Remove the cover and bake for an additional 15 minutes.
- Let the dish rest for 10 minutes before serving.
Notes
Serve with mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables. For a lighter version, replace heavy cream with half-and-half or milk.
