Chopped Breakfast Steaks
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 egg
- 2 slices leftover gluten-free bread,
stale is fine, crumbled into tiny bits or 1/3 cup rolled oats
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
These are extra cheap and they're perfect for Biscuit
breakfast sandwiches or a sturdy meal of steak and eggs.
Begin the night before. Take a pound of ground beef out of the
freezer and place it in the fridge. It should be thawed by morning.
In the morning preheat your broiler.
Next make the steaks. They are mixed together like meatloaf. Combine
all of the ingredients in a medium-sized bowl and mix very well. I
use my hands to do this but if you are really phobic about the gooey
meat you could use a fork or large spoon. In restaurants they use a
large stand mixer. If you did that though, you'd have to wash
the mixer afterwards and quite frankly I feel it's much easier to
just wash my hands.
After you've made the meat mixture divide it into 6 equal portions.
Shape each portion into a thin, flat patty. You can make them round
or oval. If they are oval they look more like steaks and less like
hamburgers, but round ones fit on a biscuit more easily. Arrange the
patties on your broiler pan. Broil for 4 minutes on the first side
then flip them and broil for 2 to 3 minutes on the second side. They
will be well done, with no pink in the middle. Remove from the oven
and allow to cool.
These steaks are lusciously tender and fragrant when done. By
broiling them the fat content is reduced significantly.
If you're often pressed for time in the morning then prepare them a
day ahead and reheat by pan-frying or microwaving.
They're good instead of sausage for breakfast, or as already
mentioned, in a meal of steak and eggs. Steak & Egg Biscuits are
delicious in the morning and a real family favorite. Makes 6 chopped steaks.
