Ingredients for Amazing Hamburger Steak With Gravy

  • Lean Ground Beef
  • Onion
  • Dry Steak Seasoning
  • Garlic Clove
  • Oatmeal
  • 1/4 cup milk (or beef stock for lactose-free)
  • Eggs
  • Salt And Pepper
  • Red Wine
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

How to Make Amazing Hamburger Steak With Gravy

  1. In a large bowl, gently combine ground beef, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Avoid overmixing.
  2. Let the meat mixture rest for 5 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld and helps prevent tough patties.
  3. Shape the meat into 6-8 oval patties, about 3/4 inch thick.
  4. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  5. Sear hamburger steaks for 3-4 minutes per side, until well-browned and cooked through. You may need to cook in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
  6. Remove cooked patties from the skillet and set aside. Pour off any excess grease.
  7. Add red wine to the skillet and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom (this is called deglazing).
  8. In a small bowl, whisk together milk (or beef stock) and cornstarch until smooth.
  9. Reduce heat to medium-low. Pour the milk/cornstarch mixture into the skillet, stirring constantly.
  10. Bring the gravy to a simmer, stirring continuously, until it thickens. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
  11. Return the hamburger steaks to the skillet and coat with the gravy.
  12. Serve immediately over rice, mashed potatoes, or your favorite side dish. Garnish as desired.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
