Pancetta Meatloaf Recipes

ITALIAN MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• For the meatloaf: Pour the milk over the bread and allow it to soak in for several minutes. Place the ground beef, milk-soaked bread, Parmesan, parsley, Italian seasoning, salt, seasoned salt and some pepper in a large mixing bowl. Add the eggs. With clean hands, mix the ingredients until well combined.
• Form the mixture into a loaf shape on a foil-lined broiler pan, which will allow the fat from the meat to drain. Lay the pancetta slices over the top, tucking them underneath the meatloaf to give the meatloaf some support.
• For the tomato sauce: Put the diced tomatoes into a bowl. Add the brown sugar, dry mustard and cayenne pepper and splash in the Worcestershire sauce. Stir the mixture until well combined. Pour one-third of the sauce over the top of the meatloaf.
• Bake for 45 minutes, and then pour another third of the remaining tomato sauce over the meatloaf. Bake until no longer pink in the middle, for an additional 20 to 25 minutes. Allow to sit 10 minutes before serving.
• Serve with the remaining tomato sauce on the side as a dipping sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, stir together the bread crumbs, parsley, eggs, milk, cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, salt, and pepper. Add the turkey and gently stir to combine, being careful not to overwork the meat.
• On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, lay out the pancetta, overlapping the slices, into a large rectangle shape. In the middle of the rectangle, place the turkey mixture, shaping into a loaf. Using the parchment paper, wrap the pancetta up and around the turkey loaf to cover completely. Squeeze the parchment-covered loaf with your hands to secure the pancetta and solidify the shape of the loaf. While still covered in parchment, bake the loaf about 45 minutes. Remove.
