Hamburger Steaks in Creamy Dill Sauce

Ingredients:

Hamburger Steaks:

• 1.3 pounds ground beef
• 4 tbsp breadcumbs
• 1 medium yellow onion grated
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp heavy cream
• 1 egg

Creamy Dill Sauce:

• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp unsalted butter
• 1 small yellow onion finely chopped
• 2 garlic cloves minced
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
• ½ cup low sodium chicken broth
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 2 tbsp chopped dill more for serving

Instructions:

1. Start with making the hamburger steaks. Into a large bowl, grate the onion. Add ground beef, breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, cream and egg. Mix with your hands until just combined. Divide beef mixture into 4 portions, and shape each portion into a ball. Press the balls down by using the palm of your hand or a spatula until ¾ inch/2 cm thick. Set aside.
2. Finely chop the onion, mince the garlic and chop the dill.
3. Heat oil and butter over medium in a large nonstick skillet. Add hamburger steaks and cook 4-5 minutes per side. Transfer onto a clean plate.
4. Add garlic and onion, reduce heat to low and cook until fragrant about 2 minutes. Add salt, pepper and flour, stir until incorporated. Pour in broth and simmer for 2 minutes while scraping up the brown bits on the bottom of your skillet with a wooden spoon.
5. Add cream and dill, bring to a boil and simmer for 1-2 minutes until the sauce starts to thicken. Return hamburger steaks to the skillet and simmer for 5-6 minutes until heated through and no longer raw in the center. Finish off with chopped dill and freshly grated black pepper. Serve!
