Steps to Make It
Make the Onions:
-
Gather the ingredients.
-
To prepare the onion, heat oil in a large skillet and add onions, salt, and black pepper, cook for 3 minutes on high heat.

Watch carefully, so onions do not burn.
-
Add remaining ingredients—beef stock, Worcestershire sauce, wine, and chili pepper, and bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium and allow the sauce to simmer for 8 minutes.

Add more broth if necessary.
-
Once onions are soft and translucent, remove pan from heat and set aside.
Make the Hamburger Steaks
-

-
Combine ground beef with seasonings—salt, onion powder, chili powder, oregano, and black pepper, and form into 4 to 5 equal-sized, oblong-shaped patties.
