You’ll Need:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 lb ground beef
1 white onion, halved and sliced
4-6 medium Yukon Gold Potatoes
3 cups beef broth, divided
2 tablespoons ketchup
4 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce, divided
1 teaspoon garlic powder, divided
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
3 tablespoons cornstarch
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
PREPARATION:
-In a medium bowl, combine ground beef, 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, salt, and pepper, and mix to combine. Shape into four equal-sized patties about 1/2-inch thick.
-Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown patties on each side, then remove to a plate and set aside.
-Meanwhile, pierce each potato with a fork a few times, then microwave for 5 minutes. (This is to lessen the cooking time in skillet.) Once cool enough to handle, chop into 1 1/2 inch pieces.
-Add onions to the same skillet you browned the beef in, season with salt and pepper, and cook until soft, about 5 minutes.
-Add chopped potatoes and 2 cups broth to skillet. Bring to a simmer and let cook until potatoes are tender, about 5 minutes.
-Stir together the remaining 1 cup of beef broth, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, thyme, and corn starch. Pour into skillet and cook, stirring frequently, until mixture thickens.
-Reduce heat to low, return patties to skillet and let cook until patties are hot and cooked through. Season gravy to taste with salt and pepper and enjoy!
