Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground beef (80% lean)
• 0.25 cup Breadcrumbs
• 1 large Egg
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 0.5 medium Yellow onion, finely diced
• 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 large Yellow onion, thinly sliced
• 8 ounces Mushrooms, sliced
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 2 cups Beef broth
• 1 teaspoon Soy sauce
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, Worcestershire sauce, finely diced onion, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined; do not overmix.

Step 2

Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty about 3/4-inch thick. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add vegetable oil. Once shimmering, sear the patties for 3-4 minutes on each side until browned. (They won’t be fully cooked yet.) Remove patties from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

Reduce the heat to medium, then add butter to the same skillet. Once melted, add the sliced onions and mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes, or until the onions are soft and mushrooms are browned.

Step 5

Sprinkle the flour over the onion and mushroom mixture and stir until the flour is evenly coated, forming a roux. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly.

Step 6

Gradually pour in the beef broth, stirring continuously to prevent lumps. Add soy sauce and garlic powder. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and allow the gravy to thicken, about 3-5 minutes.

Step 7

Return the seared hamburger patties to the skillet, nestling them into the gravy. Spoon some gravy over the top of each patty.

Step 8

Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the patties are fully cooked (internal temperature reaches 160°F).

Step 9

Taste the gravy and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper, if needed.

Step 10

Garnish with fresh parsley, and serve hot over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles.
