Let me guess! The kids are back, or almost back, to school right? It's almost Fall and the activity level is ramping up and you are at wits end trying to keep it all together? With homework, dance class, football practice and on and on, all you want is to get the family to gather at the table for a warm and hearty meal! Well, I got your back and so does Manwich! Manwich is the perfect versatile Easy Weeknight Meals solution for your busy family! And, I'm sharing an easy, tasty recipe that takes no time and little effort to put in front of your busy family!
Ingredients:
1 lb 80/20 Ground Beef
1 Can Manwich Thick & Chunky Sloppy Joe Sauce, Divided
1/2 cup Italian Seasoned Bread Crumbs
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon each, olive oil & butter
1/4 cup flour
1/2 cup water
Mix the ground beef, 1/2 cup of the Manwich Sauce, bread crumbs, egg and water together until fully combined. Form into 4 oblong (football shaped) patties, about 6 ounces each.
In a large skillet, heat oil & butter over medium high heat. Add beef patties and cook on each side. Cook the patties until they are well browned, about 4 to 5 minutes on each side. (The patties will not be cooked through and will finish cooking in the gravy.) Remove the patties from the skillet and keep warm.
Place the skillet back on the heat and add the flour (if it is too dry you may add additional butter as needed), whisking up all of the oil and browned bits. Add the remainder of Manwich Sauce and water and bring to a boil. Return the patties to the pan, reduce the heat to simmer and cook until the sauce has thickened and the steaks are fully cooked, about 10 minutes. Serve warm with mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables.
