Instructions
 

To prepare the steaks:

  • In a large bowl, combine the grated onion, breadcrumbs, egg, kosher salt and black pepper until well blended.
  • Add the ground beef to the bowl; mix with the breadcrumbs and onion mixture; I recommend using your hands for this task.
  • Divide the beef mixture into four equal parts; the easiest way is to press the beef mixture into the bottom of the bowl and use your finger to draw lines dividing it into four quadrants; form 4 oval-shaped patties with your hands; about 1-inch thick.
  • Heat a large skillet, over high heat.
  • Only when it is hot (after about 2 minutes), add the olive oil; stir to coat.
  • Add the patties to the hot pan and cook for 2 minutes on each side; they should have a nice brown color; to get the best color, do not move them until the two minutes are up.
  • Remove the patties and place them on a plate; set aside.

To prepare the mushroom sauce:

  • Using medi;um heat, add 2 tbsp. butter to the pan; once the the butter has melted. add the sliced mushrooms and onions.
  • Cook the mushrooms for 2 minutes until golden brown;
  • Stir the mushrooms, coating each one in the flour; continue cooking for another minute.
  • Remove the mushrooms from the pan; set aside.
  • Using the same skillet, over medium heat, melt the remaining 4 tbsp. butte and add the sliced onions.
  • Cover partially and let them simmer, soften, and reduce for about 25 minutes; stir every few minutes and reduce heat if they start cooking too quickly.
  • Once onions are cooked, add the mushrooms; then sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and onions; stir to complete combine.
  • Add the beef stock, stirring constantly to continue to incorporate the flour.
  • Add the steak patties to the sauce mixture; simmer, uncovered, for an additional 5 minutes or until fully cooked and sauce has thickened.
