Ingredients

For the steaks

For the gravy

Optional Garnish

Instructions

  • Combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, onion, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Use your hands to mix until the mixture becomes sticky and cohesive, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Divide the mixture into five equal portions, shaping each into a patty weighing approximately 6 ounces.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the patties and cook for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until fully cooked. Transfer the patties to a plate and set aside.
  • If more than a teaspoon of grease remains in the skillet, carefully discard the excess to avoid an overly greasy gravy. Return the skillet to medium-high heat and melt the butter. Add the mushrooms, onion, and garlic, and sauté for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the onions are soft and translucent.
  • Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Slowly pour in the beef broth while continuing to stir. Add the ketchup and Worcestershire sauce and simmer until the gravy thickens, stirring occasionally.
  • Return the patties to the skillet, spoon the gravy over them, and let them warm through for 2 to 3 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley, if using, and serve hot.
