Step by Step Instructions for Making Hamburger Steak

STEP 1:

To make these hamburger steaks, I started by dumping some lean ground beef into a large mixing bowl along with an egg.

STEP 2:

Then I placed some Ritz crackers in a Ziploc bag.

I used a rolling pin to crush the Ritz crackers.

STEP 3:

I added the Ritz cracker crumbs to the mixing bowl.

I also added some Worcestershire sauce, onion powder and Montreal steak spice to the bowl.

Then I used my hands to combine all of the ingredients with the ground beef.

STEP 4:

I divided the ground beef mixture into four evenly sized balls.

Then I flattened the balls into oval patties.

STEP 5:

I heated a large skillet over medium heat and added some butter to the pan.

Then I added some thinly sliced onions to the pan.

STEP 6:

I spread the onions out into a single layer.

Then I placed the beef patties on top of the onions in the pan.

I cooked the patties for 5 minutes and then flipped them.

STEP 7:

I cooked the patties for another 5 minutes and then removed them from the pan and set them aside.

STEP 8:

I added some all purpose flour to the pan.

I stirred the flour, butter and onions together well and let the flour cook for three minutes until golden brown.

STEP 9:

Then I added some beef broth, salt and pepper to the pan.

I whisked the broth and flour mixture together well.

STEP 10:

Once the liquid started to boil, I returned the beef patties to the pan.

I spooned some of the gravy over the beef patties.

STEP 11:

Then I placed a lid on the pan and reduced the heat to low.

I left the beef patties and gravy to continue cooking, covered, for 12 minutes.

After 12 minutes I removed the lid from the pan and sprinkled some chopped chives on top of the patties.

Then the hamburger steaks were ready to serve.

I served my hamburger steaks and gravy with some mashed potatoes.
