Crunchy Onion Meatloaf Recipes

Steps:

• Arrange a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
• Whisk the eggs, milk, Worcestershire sauce and 2 teaspoons salt in a large bowl until completely combined. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, garlic, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are tender and lightly golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Add 3 tablespoons of the ketchup and cook until most of the moisture has evaporated and the mixture is thick and brick red colored, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and let the onions cool slightly. Then add them to the beaten eggs and mix to combine.
• Add the beef to the egg and onion mixture. Break up the meat with a fork or wooden spoon, and then mix to thoroughly combine; you don't want to see any lumps of raw beef. Add the panko and mix to combine. Stir the meat vigorously with a wooden spoon for about 7 seconds; it will become more homogenous and tackier.
• Transfer the meat to the prepared baking sheet and shape into a 9-by-5-inch loaf. Smooth the top and evenly spread the remaining ketchup over top. Bake for 5 minutes, and then reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees. Continue to bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the loaf registers 150 degrees F, 30 to 35 minutes. Allow the meatloaf to rest for 20 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, combine meat, eggs, ketchup, stuffing mix, ranch dressing mix and fried onions.
• Shape into loaf and fit into 9 x 5 inch loaf pan.
• Bake, covered loosely with foil, at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 50 to 60 minutes, or until meat is thoroughly cooked.

Steps:

• 1. FOR THE MEATLOAF: In a large bowl, combine the beef, egg, onion, milk, bread crumbs, and garlic powder. Season with salt and pepper to taste and place in a lightly greased 5x9-inch loaf pan, or form into a loaf and place in a lightly greased 9x13-inch baking dish.
• 2. In a separate bowl, combine the brown sugar, mustard and ketchup. Mix well and pour over the meatloaf.
• 3. Bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for 1 hour. Let it cool and then refrigerate for 2 hours or more.
• 4. TO FRY: Set three wide, shallow dishes in a row on the counter. Put the flour in the first dish. Crack the egg into the second dish and beat it lightly with a fork. Put the panko in the third dish and toss with salt and pepper.
• 5. Cut the cold meatloaf into slices and set aside.
• 6. Dredge a slice of meatloaf in the flour and then in the egg. Lay the slice in the crumbs and make sure you cover every part of it. Set aside and repeat step with all of the slices. When all are coated, refrigerate for an additional ten to fifteen minutes to let the bread crumbs set.
• 7. When ready to cook, pour oil into a heavy duty sided pan. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until it immediately and vigorously bubbles.
• 8. With a slotted metal spatula, carefully slip the breaded meatloaf into the oil. Fry until golden brown on both sides, about 1 minute per side, using the spatula to carefully turn the slices. Transfer to a plate with paper towels, sprinkle lightly with salt, and let sit briefly to drain excess oil. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Finely crush 2/3 cup French Fried Onions.
• Place in bowl; mix in meat, 1/3 cup soup, Worcestershire and egg.
• Shape into an 8 x 4-inch loaf in shallow baking pan.
• Bake 1 hour at 350°F until meatloaf is no longer pink in center. Drain.
• Spoon remaining soup over meatloaf and top with remaining onions.
• Bake 5 minutes until onions are golden.

Steps:

• Preheat the deep fat fryer, a stovetop fryer or high sided pot with the recommended amount of oil to 360 degrees. Combine the flour and paprika evenly in a flour sifter and sift into a large bowl. Add the thinly sliced onions to the flour and toss and shake well to coat the onions evenly in seasoned flour. Put the onions into a strainer and shake off any excess flour so that what remains is the thinnest coat possible. Cooking in small batches, put the coated onions in a fryer basket and carefully submerge in the hot oil. Shake the basket to insure even frying and remove from the fryer when the onions have cooked to a deep golden, but not dark brown, color. Continue in this manner until all the onions have been cooked. Season each batch with salt as it's removed from the fryer. Drain on paper toweling.;

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray; spread ketchup and brown sugar over the bottom.
• Combine beef, French-fried onions, bread crumbs, eggs, sour cream, milk, soup mix, garlic, salt, pepper, and ginger in a large bowl. Mix well and shape into a loaf over the ketchup and brown sugar.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Combine ground beef, condensed French onion soup, bread crumbs, oats, beaten egg, dried parsley, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Mix well. Pack into a loaf pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Let rest 5 minutes before cutting.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Mix the beef with half of the egg whites. Soften the oats in the wine and add them to the meat along with the garlic, onion, milk, tomato paste, parsley and thyme. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Shape the mixture into two loaves. Place them on a rack in a shallow baking pan that will hold them without crowding.
• Mix the bread crumbs with the remaining egg whites and frost the loaves all over with this mixture. Bake about 1 1/2 hours, until the loaves are crusty and brown. Serve at once or allow to cool, then refrigerate. The loaves can be reheated -- whole or sliced -- in a conventional oven or a microwave oven or sliced and used for sandwiches.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350ºF.
• Combine coating mix and seasonings in large bowl; stir in 3/4 cup cheese.
• Reserve half the onions. Add remaining onions to cheese mixture with all remaining ingredients; mix just until blended.
• Shape into 10x4-inch loaf in 13x9-inch pan sprayed with cooking spray.
• Bake 1 hour. Top with remaining onions and cheese; bake 10 min. or until meatloaf is done (160°F) and cheese is melted.
