Ingredienser
  

  • 1/2 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 lb ground pork
  • 8 oz Italian sausage links
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, egg, milk, diced onion, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until evenly combined.
  • Place half the meat mixture in a loaf pan and press it flat. Lay the Italian sausage links in a single row down the center. Cover with the remaining meat mixture and seal the edges.
  • Bake the meatloaf for 50 to 55 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 160°F. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  • While the meatloaf bakes, bring the chicken broth to a boil in a saucepan. Slowly whisk in the cornmeal. Reduce heat and cook, stirring often, for 15 minutes until thick.
  • Remove the polenta from heat. Stir in the Parmesan, butter, and heavy cream until smooth. Season with salt and pepper if needed.
  • Slice the meatloaf and serve portions over scoops of polenta. Sprinkle with fresh parsley.

merknader

Slice the sausage links in half lengthwise before placing them in the meatloaf if you want them to cook faster and release more flavor into the surrounding meat. Stir the polenta steadily near the end of cooking to avoid lumps, and add a splash more broth if it thickens too much before serving.
