1 teaspoon garlic powder, divided
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
3 tablespoons cornstarch
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
PREPARATION
In a medium bowl, combine ground beef, 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, salt, and pepper, and mix to combine. Shape into four equal-sized patties about 1/2-inch thick.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown patties on each side, then remove to a plate and set aside.
Meanwhile, pierce each potato with a fork a few times, then microwave for 5 minutes. (This is to lessen the cooking time in skillet.) Once cool enough to handle, chop into 1 1/2 inch pieces.
Add onions to the same skillet you browned the beef in, season with salt and pepper, and cook until soft, about 5 minutes.
Add chopped potatoes and 2 cups broth to skillet. Bring to a simmer and let cook until potatoes are tender, about 5 minutes.
Stir together the remaining 1 cup of beef broth, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, thyme, and corn starch. Pour into skillet and cook, stirring frequently, until mixture thickens.
