Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, mix together the ground beef, chopped onion, breadcrumbs, egg, salt, and pepper until combined.
- Form the mixture into evenly sized patties.
Cooking
- In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the patties on both sides until they develop a nice crust, about 3–4 minutes per side.
- Place the browned patties in a baking dish in a single layer.
- In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms and sauté over medium heat until tender, about 5 minutes.
- Pour the beef broth over the patties and mushrooms in the baking dish, making sure everything is evenly distributed.
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.
- Remove the foil, sprinkle the shredded cheese on top of the patties, and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serving
- Garnish with fresh parsley before serving, and serve hot with mashed potatoes, noodles, or a simple green vegetable.
