Description
This family-friendly comfort food recipe features ground beef patties stuffed with gooey mozzarella cheese, pan-seared to perfection, and finished in a rich mushroom and onion gravy.
Ingredients
- 680 g (1.5 lbs) ground beef (80/20)
- 1 large egg
- 60 g (1/2 cup) plain breadcrumbs
- 1 small yellow onion, minced (for patties)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced (for patties)
- 2.5 g (1/2 tsp) dried thyme (for patties)
- 2.5 g (1/2 tsp) smoked paprika
- 5 g (1 tsp) salt
- 2 g (1/2 tsp) black pepper
- 170 g (1.5 cups) low-moisture mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 225 g (8 oz) cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 1/2 small yellow onion, minced (for gravy)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced (for gravy)
- 30 g (1/4 cup) all-purpose flour
- 480 ml (2 cups) beef broth
- 15 ml (1 tbsp) soy sauce
- 5 ml (1 tsp) apple cider vinegar
- 2.5 g (1/4 tsp) dried thyme (for gravy)
- 45 ml (3 tbsp) vegetable oil, divided
- 5 g (1 tbsp) fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Prepare Patty Mixture: Gently mix ground beef, egg, breadcrumbs, 1 small minced onion, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1/2 tsp thyme, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper in a bowl until just combined.
- Stuff Patties with Cheese: Divide meat into 4 portions. Flatten each portion, place 1/4 of the mozzarella cheese in the center, fold over edges, and pinch firmly to seal the cheese inside completely.
- Sear Patties: Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear patties for 3-4 minutes per side until deeply golden brown, then remove and set aside.
- Sauté Gravy Aromatics: Add remaining oil to the skillet. Sauté mushrooms until browned (5-7 mins), then add 1/2 small minced onion and cook until softened (3-4 mins). Stir in 2 minced garlic cloves for 1 minute.
- Make Roux and Gravy: Sprinkle flour over vegetables and cook for 1-2 minutes. Gradually whisk in beef broth, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, and remaining thyme. Simmer while stirring until the gravy thickens.
- Bake to Finish: Return patties to the simmering gravy in the skillet. Cover and transfer to a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until cooked through and cheese is fully melted.
- Rest and Serve: Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes after removing from the oven. Serve generously spooned with gravy and garnished with fresh parsley.
Notes
For best results, avoid overmixing the ground beef mixture to prevent tough patties. Ensure a tight seal on the patties to prevent cheese from leaking during cooking. Resting the patties after baking helps redistribute juices and allows the cheese to set slightly.
