Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, finely diced onion, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined and form into 6-8 oval patties.
  2. Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the patties for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden crusted, then set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter, then add sliced onions and sauté for about 5 minutes until softened. Sprinkle flour and cook for an additional 2 minutes to form a roux.
  4. Gradually whisk in the beef broth and heavy cream, stirring until smooth. Allow the gravy to simmer and thicken for about 3-4 minutes.
  5. Nestle the patties into the gravy, cover with aluminum foil, and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 45 minutes. Remove foil and bake for another 15 minutes.
  6. Let the dish rest for about 10 minutes before serving with sides like mashed potatoes or green beans.
