Combine first 4 ingredients with 1 tsp seasoned salt, ½ tsp pepper, and the garlic powder, mixing well; shape into 4- to 4½-inch patties. Dredge well in ⅓ cup flour. Heat oil in a large heavy skillet (read cast iron) over medium-high heat, add patties, and cook until well browned on both sides. Remove from skillet and set aside.

Add sliced onion to skillet; reduce heat to medium, and saute until onion is browned. Combine water, ¼ cup flour, ½ tsp seasoned salt, salt and ¼ tsp pepper; stir until smooth. Stir into skillet and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened. Return steaks to skillet, turning to coat with sauce. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 15 mins.
