For the Hamburger Steaks:

• 1 lb ground beef (80/20 for juiciness)

• 1/4 cup breadcrumbs

• 1/4 cup milk

• 1 small onion, finely chopped

• 1 egg

• 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

• 1 tsp garlic powder

• 2 tbsp oil or butter (for frying)

For the Creamy Onion Gravy:

• 2 tbsp butter

• 2 tbsp all-purpose flour

• 1 1/2 cups beef broth

• 1/2 cup heavy cream or milk

• 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

   • In a bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and milk; let soak for 5 minutes.

2. Cook the hamburger steaks:

   • Heat oil or butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

   • Add patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side until browned and cooked through.

   • Remove steaks from skillet and set aside, keeping warm.

3. Make the creamy onion gravy:

   • In the same skillet, add butter and melt over medium heat.

   • Add sliced onions and cook until softened and caramelized, about 5-7 minutes.

   • Sprinkle flour over onions and stir well, cooking for about 1-2 minutes to remove raw flour taste.
