Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1.75 lb ground beef (about 85% lean)
- 0.75 cup crushed crackers
- 0.25 cup beaten egg
- 0.25 cup milk
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce for the beef mixture
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1.25 tsp kosher salt for the beef mixture
- 1 tsp black pepper for the beef mixture
- 4.5 cup thinly sliced russet potatoes
- 2 cup thinly sliced yellow onion
- 1 tbsp olive oil for tossing vegetables
- 2 tbsp melted butter for the baking dish and dotting
- 1.25 cup condensed cream of mushroom soup
- 1.5 cup beef broth
- 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce for the gravy
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard optional, for depth
- 1 tbsp cornstarch for thickening
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Brush a 9x13-inch baking dish with 1 tbsp melted butter.
- Toss sliced potatoes and onions with olive oil. Spread evenly in the prepared dish and dot with remaining butter.
- Whisk soup, broth, 2 tsp Worcestershire, Dijon, and cornstarch in a bowl until smooth. Set the gravy aside.
- Combine beef, crushed crackers, beaten egg, milk, 1 tbsp Worcestershire, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Form six oval patties about 3/4 inch thick. Sear in a hot skillet 2–3 minutes per side until browned.
- Nestle browned patties over the potato-onion layer. Pour the gravy evenly over everything.
- Cover tightly with foil and bake 30 minutes. Uncover and bake 15 minutes more, until potatoes are tender and beef is cooked through.
- Rest 5 minutes, then sprinkle with parsley and serve warm.
Notes
Variation: Add 1–2 cups sliced mushrooms with the onions, or swap cream of chicken soup for a lighter flavor. For make-ahead, assemble up to Step 6, cover, and refrigerate up to 24 hours; add 5–10 minutes to the bake time. Leftovers keep well refrigerated 3–4 days and reheat nicely at 325°F.
