INGREDIENTS
1 onion, roughly chopped
1 large carrot, roughly chopped
2 celery stalks, roughly chopped into 1″ pieces
1/4 c. chopped parsley, plus more for garnish
2 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 tbsp. tomato paste
1/2 c. panko bread crumbs
1 large egg, beaten
1/2 c. ketchup, plus 4 tbsp. for glaze
1 lb. ground beef
1 lb. ground pork
1 lb. asparagus, cleaned and trimmed
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat oven to 375°. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and set aside.
- In the bowl of a food processor, add onion, carrot, celery, parsley and garlic. Pulse until all ingredients are incorporated. Transfer to a large mixing bowl. Season with salt and pepper and add tomato paste, panko, egg and 1/2 cup ketchup and mix together. Add meat and mix by hand until just incorporated.
- Divide meat mixture into 4 equal parts. Shape each portion into a rectangle about 1″ in height and place on parchment paper. Spread 1 tablespoon ketchup evenly on each piece using the back of a spoon or a brush. Bake until glaze caramelizes, about 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place a steaming rack in a large pot filled with 1″ water. Boil water, then add asparagus and steam, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve meatloaf with asparagus and garnish with parsley.
