Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground beef (80/20)
  • 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 large egg , beaten
  • 1/4 cup yellow onion, grated
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 tsp sal t
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp all -purpose flour
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 tsp dried thyme

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, grated onion, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper until just incorporated.
  2. Form the mixture into four equal oval-shaped patties approximately 3/4-inch thick.
  3. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear patties for 3 to 4 minutes per side until browned. Remove patties and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, melt butter and add sliced onions. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes until onions are soft and caramelized.
  5. Sprinkle flour over the onions and stir constantly for 1 minute to cook out the raw flour taste.
  6. Gradually pour in the beef broth while whisking to prevent lumps. Add dried thyme and bring to a simmer.
  7. Return the patties to the skillet and spoon gravy over them. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes until the sauce has thickened and patties are cooked through.
  8. Serve warm, typically over mashed potatoes or egg noodles.
