Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1.5 pounds ground beef
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
- 1 egg
Binding/Filling Ingredients:
- 0.5 cup breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup milk
Seasoning Ingredients:
- 1 small onion
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F, preparing a greased 9×13-inch baking dish for the hamburger steak.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 ½ pounds ground beef, ½ cup breadcrumbs, 1 small finely chopped onion, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper, 1 egg, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, and ½ cup milk. Mix gently until just incorporated.
- Form the meat mixture into 6 equal patties, handling them as little as possible to keep them tender.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and briefly sear each patty for 2-3 minutes per side, creating a golden-brown exterior.
- Whisk together 1 can cream of mushroom soup, ½ cup milk, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, and ½ teaspoon onion powder in a separate bowl until completely smooth.
- Arrange the seared patties in the prepared baking dish and pour the creamy sauce evenly over them.
- Cover the dish with foil and bake at 375°F for 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10 minutes until the sauce bubbles and the patties reach an internal temperature of 160°F.
- Allow the hamburger steak to rest for 5 minutes before serving to help the juices redistribute.
Notes
- Test meat mixture’s seasoning by cooking a small patty before forming all the patties, ensuring perfect flavor balance.
- Work ground beef gently when mixing to keep hamburger steaks tender and prevent tough, dense texture.
- Choose lean ground beef (85/15 or 90/10) to reduce excess grease while maintaining moisture in the final dish.
- Avoid overcrowding the skillet when searing patties, which can steam meat instead of creating a nice golden-brown crust.
