# How to Make It:
01 -
Combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, beaten egg, finely diced onion, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Mix gently to incorporate.

Form the mixture into 6 to 8 oval patties of even size. Set aside while preparing the gravy base.

In an oven-safe skillet set over medium-high heat, sear patties for 3 to 4 minutes per side until deeply browned. Transfer the browned steaks to a plate.
04 -
In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté sliced onion until softened. Sprinkle in flour and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes until lightly golden.
05 -
Gradually whisk in beef broth and heavy cream. Stir in garlic powder and simmer until the gravy thickens slightly, 2 to 3 minutes.
06 -
Arrange browned patties in the gravy. Cover tightly and bake in a 350°F oven for 45 minutes. Uncover and continue to bake for 15 minutes until the sauce is bubbling and steaks are fully cooked.
07 -
Remove from oven and allow the dish to rest for 10 minutes before serving to ensure juices are redistributed.
