Hamburger Steak
This hamburger steak is classic Southern comfort food! This one-pan meal is paleo, whole30, and AIP.
Ingredients
For the hamburger
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 tsp sea salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper omit for AIP
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
For the gravy
- 2 tbsp avocado oil or you can use the fat from the burgers
- 1 yellow onion thinly sliced
- 2 cups mushrooms sliced
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 tbsp coconut aminos
- 2 tsp mustard omit for AIP
- 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- ½ tsp sea salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper omit for AIP
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tsp arrowroot starch
- 1 tbsp chopped parsley for topping
Instructions
- Season the ground beef with salt and pepper and form into 4-5 burgers.
- Heat the avocado oil over medium heat in a large pan and add the burgers. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 160-165 F. Set aside, leaving at least 2 tbsp of fat in the pan (adding more if needed).
- Saute the onion slices for 5-6 minutes or until soft. Add the mushrooms and cook for another 3-4 minutes or until tender.
- Combine the broth, coconut aminos, mustard, apple cider vinegar, arrowroot starch and seasonings in a bowl and stir to combine. Pour the mixture into the pan and reduce the heat, allowing to thicken for 3-4 minutes.
- Once the gravy is thick, add the burgers back to the pan and spoon the gravy over the burgers. Serve topped with chopped parsley!
