Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/3 cup crushed crackers ((or bread crumbs))
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ green pepper, (finely diced)
  • ½ small yellow onion, (finely diced)
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 packet brown gravy
  • 10.5 ounce can French onion soup
  • 10.75 ounce can cream of chicken soup ((or cream of mushroom))
  • ¼ cup water

Instruction

  • In a bowl, combine ingredients for patties.
  • Heat a cast iron skillet (or saute pan) on medium-high heat.
  • Begin forming hamburger steaks into an oval shape (this recipe makes 4).
  • Place patties into preheated pan. They should sizzle.
  • Brown both sides. You aren’t going to cook them all the way through yet. We want a really good browning on both sides. This gives great flavor!
  • Cook about 3-4 minutes on each side. Take browned patties out of pan and set aside.
  • Add all the gravy ingredients to the pan and whisk together well to remove most of the lumps. It will take a minute or two of whisking.
  • Add patties back to pan. Cover and turn heat down to a lower setting.
  • Let cook for another 10 minutes or so until no longer pink in the middle and the internal temperature of the beef has reached 160F degrees. Then serve
