Perfectly caramelized, ultra-flavorful beef patties, pan-seared until browned, then braised in a satiny mushroom gravy. This iconic meal of yesteryear has been revamped and perfected, and you can enjoy it with ease any night of the week.
To make the steaks, in a large bowl, combine all the ingredients for the steaks (except the olive oil), using 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Mix gently with your hands to combine. Shape the mixture 4 oval patties, each about 1-inch thick.
Heat the oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steaks and cook until browned on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer the steaks to a plate and set aside.
To make the gravy, heat the oil in the same pan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, until soft. Add the mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes, until soft and releasing liquid.
Add the butter to the pan. When the butter is melted, stir in the flour. Once the flour is completely incorporated, add the broth, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, and garlic powder. Bring to a simmer.
Return the partially cooked steaks to the pan with any juices on the plate. Return to a simmer and simmer for 15 minutes, until the steaks are cooked through (160 degrees on an instant-read thermometer) and the sauce thickens.
