Ingredients
  

For the Patties
  • 1 pound Ground Beef Can use ground chicken, pork, or turkey for different flavors and textures.
  • 1/2 cup Breadcrumbs Use gluten-free breadcrumbs for a gluten-free option.
  • 1 medium Yellow Onion (grated) Use a cheese grater to avoid large onion chunks.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Use Kosher salt for better control in seasoning.
  • 1 teaspoon Black Pepper Freshly ground black pepper is recommended for best flavor.
  • 1/2 cup Heavy Cream Lighter cream, soy cream, or unsweetened coconut cream can be used.
  • 1 large Egg Can substitute with a flax egg for a vegan option.
For Cooking
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil Can substitute with vegetable oil.
  • 1 tablespoon Unsalted Butter Avoid using salted butter to control the overall saltiness.
For the Sauce
  • 2 cloves Garlic (minced) Fresh garlic yields the best flavor.
  • 1 cup Chicken Broth Use vegetable broth for a vegetarian version.
  • 2 tablespoons All-Purpose Flour Can be replaced with cornstarch to make the dish gluten-free.
  • 1/4 cup Chopped Fresh Dill Dried dill can work in a pinch, but flavor will not be as strong.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, grated onion, salt, black pepper, heavy cream, and egg. Gently mix until just combined, then shape into four patties, about ¾ inch thick.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and unsalted butter. Once melted, add the patties and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through.
  3. In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for 2 minutes. Add salt, black pepper, and flour, stirring for 1 minute.
  4. Pour in chicken broth and scrape the skillet to release browned bits. Simmer for about 2 minutes.
  5. Reduce heat to low and stir in heavy cream and chopped dill, simmer for 1-2 minutes to thicken.
  6. Return the patties to the skillet, cover, and simmer for 5-6 minutes, garnish with additional dill and black pepper before serving.
