 Servings:  4

Chopped hamburger steaks smothered in gravy and onions!  This is a simple, easy, and delicious way to dress up ground beef.  If you're a cast iron skillet lover, a 10" skillet works great for this dinner for four.  Served with mashed potatoes or rice, it makes the perfect Sunday Supper! 

INGREDIENTS:

1 pound ground sirloin

1 egg

¼ cup bread crumbs

1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper

¼ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon onion powder

½ teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

1 Tablespoon olive oil

1 medium onion, thinly sliced

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1 cup beef broth

1 tablespoon cooking sherry

DIRECTIONS:

·         In large bowl, mix together the ground beef, egg, bread crumbs, pepper, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce.  Form into 4 equally sized balls and flatten into patties.

·         Heat the oil in large skillet over medium heat.  Fry the patties and onion in the oil until patties are nicely browned on both sides and cooked through, about 10 to 12 minutes total. Remove the beef patties to a plate, and keep warm.

·         Sprinkle flour over the onions and drippings in the skillet and blend it in with a fork. 

·         Gradually add the beef broth and sherry, blending well.  Simmer and stir over medium-low heat for about 4 minutes until gravy thickens. 

·         Turn heat to low, return beef patties to the gravy, cover, and simmer for another 15 minutes.

·         Serve with rice or mashed potatoes.
