Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ pounds ground beef
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried parsley)
  • ½ cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped (for gravy)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced (for gravy)
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • ½ cup red wine
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • Salt and pepper to taste (for gravy)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, minced garlic, egg, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, pepper, thyme, oregano, parsley, and milk. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
  3. Shape the meat mixture into a loaf and place it in a greased 9×5-inch loaf pan or on a lined baking sheet.
  4. Bake for 1 hour or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F. Let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
  5. While the meatloaf is resting, prepare the gravy. In a saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and garlic, sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
  6. Pour in beef broth and red wine, bringing to a simmer.
  7. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water until smooth. Stir this mixture into the gravy, cooking until thickened, about 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Slice the meatloaf and serve with the wine gravy drizzled on top.

Notes

  • For a twist, try adding ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese to the meat mixture for extra flavor.
  • Alternatively, substitute ground turkey or chicken for a lighter version of the meatloaf.
