SUNNY'S NUNYA BUSINESS MEATLOAF

Provided by Sunny Anderson

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds ground chuck (80 percent beef, 20 percent fat)
1 1/2 cups Italian-style breadcrumbs
One 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes
One 11-gram packet French onion mushroom soup/dip mix
1/4 cup finely grated (like sand baby!) Parmesan
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, if needed
1 egg, whisked

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Break up the beef and drop loosely in a large bowl. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs evenly over the beef.
  • In a medium bowl, add the tomatoes, soup mix and Parmesan. Mix and mash up any large chunks of tomatoes using a potato masher. Taste and season with salt and pepper if necessary (the mix packet contains lots of seasoning, so you probably won't need to). Add the egg and stir.
  • Pour all but 1/2 cup of the flavor base (tomato mixture) over the top of the beef. Using your less dominant hand with your fingers spread out like a pitchfork, gently mix and fold everything together, turning the bowl with your free hand, until just combined. Don't over-mix!
  • Form the mixture into the shape of a loaf on a parchment-lined baking sheet or press gently into a meatloaf pan. Top the loaf with the remaining flavor base. Cook until the internal temperature is 155 degrees F, 50 to 65 minutes. Remove and gently cover with aluminum foil for 10 minutes to allow the ambient heat to bring it to 160 degrees F before slicing and serving.

Nutrition Facts :

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ground beef. The better the quality of the beef, the better the meatloaf will be. Look for ground beef that is at least 80% lean.
  • Don't overmix the meatloaf mixture. Overmixing can make the meatloaf tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Use fresh bread crumbs. Fresh bread crumbs will help to keep the meatloaf moist. You can also use crackers or oatmeal in place of bread crumbs.
  • Sauté the onions before adding them to the meatloaf mixture. Sautéing the onions will help to bring out their flavor.
  • Use a loaf pan that is no more than 9x5 inches. A larger loaf pan will make the meatloaf too thin and it will not cook evenly.
  • Bake the meatloaf in a preheated oven. A preheated oven will help to ensure that the meatloaf cooks evenly.
  • Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the meatloaf to retain its juices.

Conclusion:

French onion meatloaf is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for a family meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make a French onion meatloaf that is sure to impress your family and friends.
