Hambagu

Japanese flavors, weeknight effort. Ground beef meets ground pork in a 45-minute dinner worth keeping in rotation. The macros do the talking: 48g protein, 56g carbs, and 32g fat in every 720-calorie serving. It scales cleanly if you are cooking for more than one.

Ingredients

• 1 lb Ground beef
• 0.5 lb Ground pork
• 1 Onion
• 0.5 cup Panko
• 0.25 cup Milk
• 1 Egg
• 1 cup Demi-glace sauce
• 3 cups Rice
• 2 cups Steamed broccoli

Steps

1. Sauté the onion until soft and sweet; cool. Soak the panko in the milk 5 minutes. Mix everything with the meats, egg, salt, and pepper — then throw the mixture against the bowl to knock out air pockets.
2. Shape into four thick ovals and press a dimple in the center of each; the dimple keeps them from puffing into meatballs.
3. Sear 3 minutes per side in a hot pan, then cover and steam 5 minutes until cooked through.
4. Pour over the warmed demi-glace and simmer 2 minutes, spooning the sauce over.
5. Serve with rice and broccoli, the sauce pooled generously. Not a burger — a steak that happens to be ground.
