Equipment

  • Cast Iron Skillet

Ingredients

  • lbs. lean ground beef
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs
  • ¼ cup minced onion
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard or any mustard
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • ½ tsp dried oregano
  • ½ tsp ground black pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cups low-sodium beef broth
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 yellow onion thinly sliced
  • 8 oz. cremini mushrooms sliced
  • 3 tbsp cornstarch
  • 3 tbsp water

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, minced onion, egg, Dijon, salt, oregano, and black pepper. Shape mixture into four 5¾-inch oblong patties.
    1½ lbs. lean ground beef, ½ cup breadcrumbs, ¼ cup minced onion, 1 large egg, 1 tsp Dijon mustard, 1 tsp kosher salt, ½ tsp dried oregano, ½ tsp ground black pepper
  • Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet set over medium heat. Fry the beef patties for 4-6 minutes, flipping once, until browned on both sides. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil.
    1 tbsp olive oil
  • To the skillet, add the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, onion, and mushrooms. Bring the mixture to a boil, then return the patties to the skillet and cover it. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil.
    2 cups low-sodium beef broth, 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce, 1 yellow onion, 8 oz. cremini mushrooms
  • Turn heat to medium, bringing the skillet mixture to a boil. In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water, then stir it into the onion mixture. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the gravy is thickened, tasting and adjusting seasoning as desired. Pour over the steak patties and serve.

Notes

  • Fry the patties until cooked through, or 165°F on an instant-read thermometer.
  • Use cold water in the cornstarch slurry to prevent it from seizing up!
