Number Of Ingredients 17

1 medium yellow onion, diced

2-3 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, minced
2 tsp chili powder
1 tsp ground cumin

1/2 tsp black pepper
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/2 cup ketchup
2-3 Tbsp adobo sauce from the can of chipotle peppers
2 -3 Tbsp light brown sugar, packed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 F degrees. Add butter to small skillet and melt over MED heat. Add onion and cook 4-5 minutes, until soft and slightly browned on the edges, stirring occasionally. Add garlic and cook 1 minute. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • Add diced bread pieces and milk to a large mixing bowl and stir to combine. Add beef, cheese, cilantro, minced chipotle peppers, chili powder, cumin, salt, pepper, beaten egg and cooked onion mixture. Mix together until just combined.
  • Lightly spray a meatloaf pan with nonstick cooking spray. Pat meatloaf into prepared pan.
  • Combine sauce ingredients in small bowl. Slather about half the sauce on the top of meatloaf, and bake for 60-90 minutes, until meatloaf is about 150-155 F degrees. Let stand 10 minutes before serving. Use the remaining half of the sauce to spoon over the top or dip the meatloaf in as you eat :)

SWEET AND SPICY MEATLOAF

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 green bell peppers, diced small
2 red bell peppers, diced small
1 large yellow onion, diced small
3/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/2 cup whole milk
2 heads garlic, roasted and mashed into a paste
2 heads garlic, roasted and mashed into a paste
1 cup ketchup
1/4 cup steak sauce
1/4 cup sriracha
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 tablespoon Montreal steak seasoning
2 pounds 80/20 ground beef
1 pound sweet Italian sausage, casings removed
3 eggs, beaten
1 bunch fresh Italian parsley, chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Mashed potatoes, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute the green peppers, red peppers and onions until very soft and browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a plate or baking sheet and refrigerate until cold. (This can be done a day ahead.)
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Mix the breadcrumbs, milk and roasted garlic in a bowl; it should have an oatmeal-like consistency. Set aside.
  • In another bowl, mix the ketchup, steak sauce, sriracha, maple syrup and steak seasoning. If the sauce is too spicy for you, add a little more ketchup to mellow the heat. Set aside.
  • In a bowl, combine the ground beef, sausage, parsley, eggs, pepper-onion mixture and two-thirds of the meatloaf sauce. Mix well, but don't overwork. Take a small ball of the mixture and make a bite-size patty. Saute the patty in a pan until cooked through, then taste. Add salt and pepper to the meatloaf mix as needed.
  • When you are happy with the flavor, place the meatloaf mixture in a greased loaf pan, or form it into a log and place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until the internal temperature reaches 155 degrees F, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Remove from the oven; adjust the oven to a low broil. Brush the top of the loaf with half of the remaining sauce, then return to the oven to caramelize the sauce, 2 to 3 minutes. Let rest for 20 minutes before slicing. Serve with mashed potatoes and a drizzle of the remaining sauce.

SAVORY SPICY MEATLOAF AND SAUCE



Savory Spicy Meatloaf and Sauce image

I modified this recipe from my mom's original. This recipe uses steak sauces, so it's more flavorful than regular versions, I think. And the sauce uses the same ingredients as the meatloaf recipe, so you just need to get everything out once! Feel free to adjust the spices to your tastes, and the measurements are what I guesstimate them to be. I just eyeball it, and you can too. I'd say this yields about 5-6 slices, or 2-3 servings for 2 people. This is the first recipe I've posted, so sorry if it's a little disorganized. Enjoy!
