Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground beef 16 ounces; or ground turkey or ground chicken
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2/3 cup Parmesan cheese shredded, divided
- 1 tablespoon dried minced onion
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 350°F.
- In a mixing bowl, add the beef, panko, half of the Parmesan (1/3 cup), dried onion, garlic, egg, milk, parsley, salt, pepper and Italian seasoning. Mix with your hands just until combined; try not to overmix.
- Form the mixture into a loaf and place it in a loaf pan, or set it on a sheet pan.
- Bake for 45 minutes, then check the middle with a thermometer: it should read 160°F for beef (165°F for turkey or chicken). If it isn't there yet, bake 10 to 15 minutes more and check again.
- Sprinkle the remaining 1/3 cup Parmesan over the top and put the meatloaf under the broiler for about 1 minute, until the cheese melts and browns. Watch it closely.
- Let the meatloaf rest for 5 minutes, then slice and serve.
Notes
Mix gently, just until combined. Ground turkey or chicken: bake to 165°F. Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours and eat within 3 to 4 days or freeze 3 to 4 months; reheat to 165°F.
