Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• 3 cup Yellow Onions
• 1 teaspoon Thyme
• 2 teaspoon Kosher Salt
• 1 teaspoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper
• 3 tablespoon Worchestershire
• 0.33 cup Chicken Stock
• 1 tablespoon Tomato Paste
• 2.5 pound Ground Beef
• 0.5 cup Bread Crumbs
• 2 Eggs
• 0.5 cup Ketchup

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees
2. Heat the olive oil in a medium saute pan
3. Add the onions, thyme, salt, and pepper and cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes, until the onions are translucent but not brown
4. Off the heat, add the Worcestershire sauce, chicken stock, and tomato paste. Allow to cool slightly
5. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, onion mixture, bread crumbs, and eggs, and mix lightly with a fork. Don’t mash or the meat loaf will be dense.
6. Shape the mixture into a rectangular loaf on a sheet pan covered with parchment paper
7. Spread the ketchup evenly on top. Bake for 1 to 1 ¼ hours, until the internal temperature is 160 degrees F and the meat loaf is cooked through. (Note: a pan of hot water in the oven, under the meat loaf, will keep the top from cracking)
8. Serve hot
