Categories     main-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 tablespoon olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 medium yellow onion, minced
1 red bell pepper, minced
Pinch crushed red pepper, optional
2 pounds ground beef (I use 80/20)
1 cup grated Parmesan
3/4 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
16 fresh basil leaves, chopped
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup marinara sauce
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
6 soft sub rolls, split
Garlic salt, as needed
1 cup marinara sauce
1 pound sliced mozzarella

Steps:

  • For the meatloaf: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic, onion, bell pepper and crushed red pepper if using and saute until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • In a large bowl, combine the beef, Parmesan, breadcrumbs, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, garlic salt, kosher salt, pepper, basil, eggs, 1/2 cup of the marinara and the cooled vegetables. Use your hands to mix everything together. Transfer the mixture to the center of the prepared baking sheet and form into a loaf. Coat the meat loaf with the remaining 1/2 cup marinara.
  • Bake until the meat loaf is firm, 45 minutes to 1 hour (depending on the shape of your loaf). Let set for about 5 minutes before slicing.
  • For the sandwiches: Butter the rolls and then sprinkle with garlic salt. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake until light golden and toasted, about 5 minutes.
  • Add a slice of meatloaf to each toasted roll and top with some of the marinara and 3 slices mozzarella. Return to the oven and bake until the cheese is melted, 8 to 10 minutes.

2 medium onions, diced
2 red peppers, seeded, small diced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Heat 1/4 cup of the olive oil in a medium saute pan over medium heat and add the garlic. Saute 1 minute and then add the peppers and onions and saute until just soft. Let cool.
  • Whisk together the basil, parsley and eggs in a small bowl, and then add the salt and black pepper. Combine the Parmesan and breadcrumbs in another small bowl. Thoroughly combine the meat, herbs and eggs, Parmesan and breadcrumbs, the Worcestershire, vinegar and remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil together in a large bowl using your hands, making sure not to overmix.
  • Pack the meat mixture into an oiled loaf pan, if you do not have a loaf pan, form the meat mixture into a loaf shape on an oiled oven tray or baking dish. Top with the marinara making sure to spread evenly over the top.
  • Bake for approximately 50 to 60 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer registers 160 degrees F in the middle of the meatloaf. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice and serve.

ITALIAN MEATLOAF WITH MARINARA SAUCE



Italian Meatloaf with Marinara Sauce image

My Italian meatloaf is made extra juicy by soaking bread in grated onion instead of using breadcrumbs. The seasonings for the meatloaf are the same as what is used for homemade Italian sausages, so this really tastes like an Italian meatloaf! And the sauce is made extra tasty by adding the loaf pan juices and cooking the meatloaf IN the sauce for part of the time.

Categories     Dinner

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 1/2 cups diced red bell pepper / capsicum ((1 large))
1 tbsp olive oil
2 cups stale white bread (, crusts removed, roughly diced (about 3 slices))
1 small onion
2 tbsp cream ((or milk))
13 oz / 400 g ground pork ((mince))
1.6lb / 800 g ground beef ((mince))
2 eggs
2 1/2 tsp fennel seeds
3 tsp paprika ((sweet or smoked))
1 3/4 tsp salt
Pepper
1 tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves (, minced)
1/2 onion (, finely chopped (brown, white, yellow))
1.4 lb / 700 g tomato passata or crushed tinned tomatoes ((Note 1))
3/4 cup water
2 tsp dried Mixed Italian Herbs
1 - 3 tsp red pepper flakes ((optional))
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 180C/350F. Spray a 28cm/11" loaf pan, then line with parchment / baking paper, leaving overhang (Note 2).
  • Heat oil over high heat. Add capsicum, leave for 1 minute without stirring so it starts to char (burn) then stir and continue cooking to char it more (about 2 minutes in total). Remove and set aside.
  • Place bread in a large bowl. Grate onion into the bowl, using a normal box cutter (Note 3). Add cream, then use your hands to squidge the mixture together so the bread is completely soaked and starts to disintegrate.
  • Add remaining meatloaf ingredients, including capsicum. Use your hands to mix it together until JUST combined. Do not over mix otherwise it will become dense.
  • Press into the loaf pan (Note 4). Drizzle with olive oil then bake for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, make the Sauce.
  • Take the meatloaf out of the oven. Carefully lift the meatloaf out of the loaf pan (using the paper overhang) onto a work surface. Then transfer the meatloaf into the skillet with the Sauce.
  • Pour juices in the loaf pan into the skillet. Return to the oven for a further 30 to 40 minutes, or until cooked to your liking.
  • Take it out of the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve the meatloaf with the Sauce, garnished with parmesan if desired.
  • I like to serve this with mashed potatoes but it is also lovely with pasta.

¼ cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs

  • Bake in preheated oven for 40 minutes. Spoon about half the tomato sauce over the loaf and continue baking until the meatloaf is no longer pink in the center, 10 to 15 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Rest meatloaf 5 to 10 minutes before slicing to serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ground meat: A combination of ground beef, pork, and veal makes for a moist and flavorful meatloaf. If you prefer a leaner meatloaf, use ground turkey or chicken.
  • Don't overwork the meat: Overworking the meat will make the meatloaf tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Use fresh bread crumbs: Fresh bread crumbs will help to bind the meatloaf together and add a light texture. If you don't have fresh bread crumbs, you can use dry bread crumbs that have been soaked in milk.
  • Season the meatloaf well: Italian seasoning, garlic, and onion powder are essential seasonings for Italian-style meatloaf. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
  • Bake the meatloaf in a loaf pan: A loaf pan will help to keep the meatloaf moist and prevent it from falling apart. If you don't have a loaf pan, you can also bake the meatloaf in a baking dish.
  • Top the meatloaf with sauce: A simple tomato sauce is a classic topping for Italian-style meatloaf. You can also use a more complex sauce, such as a marinara or Bolognese sauce.
  • Serve the meatloaf with your favorite sides: Mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, and a side salad are all great options.

Conclusion:

Italian-style meatloaf is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give Italian-style meatloaf a try. You won't be disappointed!
