Ingredients
Scale
Protein:
- 1.5 lbs ground beef
Binding and Seasoning:
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- Salt
- Black pepper
Sauce Components:
- 1 (10 oz) can cream of mushroom soup
- 0.5 cup milk
- 1 small onion
- 1 cup mushrooms
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Garnish:
- Fresh parsley
Instructions
- Crank your oven to a steady 350°F and coat a 9×13-inch baking dish with a light cooking spray layer.
- Blend 1½ lbs ground beef with ½ cup breadcrumbs, 1 large egg, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp onion powder, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl.
- Form the meat mixture into 4-6 oval-shaped patties using your hands, pressing firmly to create compact shapes.
- Warm a skillet over medium heat and sear each patty for 2-3 minutes per side, developing a rich golden-brown exterior without cooking completely through.
- Transfer the browned patties into your prepared baking dish, arranging them with slight spacing between each.
- Whisk 1 can of cream of mushroom soup, ½ cup milk, and 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce until smooth and well combined.
- Pour the creamy sauce evenly over the meat patties, ensuring complete coverage.
- Scatter 1 small thinly sliced onion and 1 cup sliced mushrooms across the top of the dish if you prefer extra flavor.
- Seal the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and slide into the preheated oven.
- Bake covered for 30-35 minutes, then remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10 minutes until the sauce bubbles and patties reach full doneness.
- Sprinkle some fresh chopped parsley on top for a bright finishing touch before serving alongside your favorite starch.
Notes
- Let the meat mixture rest for 10 minutes before shaping patties to help them hold together better during cooking.
- Use lean ground beef with about 15% fat for the most tender and flavorful hamburger steak.
- Choose low-sodium cream of mushroom soup to control the saltiness of your final dish.
- For a gluten-free version, swap regular breadcrumbs for gluten-free breadcrumbs and check that your soup is certified gluten-free.
