How to Make Cajun Hamburger Steak
- Sauté 1 medium chopped yellow onion and 1 chopped green bell pepper in a large skillet over medium heat until wilted (about 5-7 minutes).
- Add 2 thinly sliced green onions and sauté for another 2 minutes.
- In a large bowl, combine 1.5 lbs ground beef with 2 tbsp Cajun seasoning, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp onion powder, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional). Gently mix in the sautéed vegetables.
- Form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties.
- Broil the patties for 2-3 minutes per side, until nicely browned.
- Transfer the skillet to a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven. Add 1/2 cup of water to the skillet, cover with foil, and bake for 15 minutes.
- Check the internal temperature with a meat thermometer. It should reach at least 160°F (71°C), ideally 170°F (77°C).
- Add more water if needed and brush the steaks with a little water.
- Continue baking, checking the temperature frequently, until the desired internal temperature is reached.
- Reduce oven temperature to 250°F (121°C), add more water if needed and continue to cook for 5 more minutes.
- Remove from oven, brush with water or sauce, and let rest, covered, for 10 minutes.
- While the steaks rest, sauté 8 oz sliced cremini mushrooms in a separate skillet over medium heat until softened.
- Add seasonings to taste to the mushrooms. Stir in 2 tbsp of instant roux to create a sauce.
- Alternatively, you can use 1/2 cup of roasted red pepper sauce.
- Serve the Cajun Hamburger Steaks topped with the mushroom sauce (or roasted pepper sauce) and sautéed vegetables, or serve the sauce and vegetables on the side.
