Ingredients

• 4 eggs
• 1 cup sliced onion
• 1 cup sliced mushrooms
• 4 cups cooked rice
• cooking spray
• 1 pound ground beef chuck
• 1 (12 ounce) jar brown gravy (such as Heinz®)
• 0.5 cup water

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Grease a large skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat.

Step 2

Fry patties in the hot skillet until they begin to firm, are hot, and are slightly pink in the center, about 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Remove patties to a plate, retaining drippings in the skillet.

Step 3

Stir onion and water into reserved drippings. Reduce heat to low and cook until onion is slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Add mushrooms; cook and stir until mushrooms are cooked through, about 5 minutes more.

Step 4

Pour gravy over onion-mushroom mixture; stir. Cook until gravy is hot, about 5 minutes. Gently lie patties into gravy; simmer until reheated through.

Step 5

While patties simmer in gravy, grease a separate skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Fry eggs in the hot skillet until whites are opaque, but yolks remain runny, 2 to 3 minutes.

Step 6

Divide ground chuck into four equal portions; form into patties.

Step 7

Divide cooked rice between four plates. Top each rice portion with a beef patty and cover each patty with an egg. Pour gravy equally over each portion.
