Ground Beef and Gravy
This classic comfort meal is easy to make, ready in just 30 minutes, and uses only seven staple pantry ingredients for a rich and satisfying dish.
Equipment
- Large Skillet
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
- 1 1/2 tablespoons dried minced onion
- 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons butter or olive oil
- 1 1/2 teaspoons seasoning salt (or salt and black pepper)
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 14.5 ounces beef broth (regular or low-sodium)
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and crumble as it cooks until fully browned. Drain excess fat.
- Stir in garlic powder, dried onion, and seasoning salt (or salt and pepper). Cook for about one minute.
- Lower heat to medium and add butter (or olive oil). Once melted, sprinkle flour evenly over the beef and stir well.
- Slowly pour in beef broth while stirring to prevent lumps. Add Worcestershire sauce and bring to a soft simmer.
- Stir occasionally as the gravy thickens for about five to ten minutes. Adjust thickness with water or extra broth if needed.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles.
