Description
A hearty and flavorful dish featuring juicy hamburger steaks paired with crispy garlic butter potatoes. Perfect for an easy skillet dinner.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 lb ground beef (80/20 for best flavor)
- 1/3 cup finely diced onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 large egg
- 1/3 cup breadcrumbs (or crushed crackers)
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika (optional)
- 1 tbsp olive oil (for searing)
- 1 1/2 lb baby gold potatoes, sliced in halves or thick rounds
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder (or 2 cloves minced garlic)
- 1 tbsp chopped parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
- Prep the potatoes: Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and parboil 8–10 minutes until just tender. Drain well.
- Make the patties: In a bowl, mix ground beef, onion, garlic, egg, breadcrumbs, Worcestershire, salt, pepper, and paprika until just combined. Form into 6 thick patties.
- Sear the hamburger steaks: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear patties 3–4 minutes per side until deeply browned and cooked through (or to desired doneness). Transfer to a plate and tent with foil.
- Crisp the potatoes: In the same skillet, add olive oil and butter. Add drained potatoes in a single layer. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Cook 10–12 minutes, flipping occasionally, until golden and crisp.
- Serve: Plate the crispy potatoes with the hamburger steaks. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and extra black pepper if you like.
Notes
- Use 80/20 ground beef for the best flavor and juiciness.
- Parboiling the potatoes ensures they crisp up nicely in the skillet.
- Let the patties rest before serving to retain juices.
