👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

2. Make the meatloaf mixture:
   In a large bowl, combine ground beef, onion, eggs, garlic, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, breadcrumbs, milk, parsley, salt, Italian seasoning, black pepper, and paprika. Mix gently until just combined. Let rest for 5 minutes.

3. Shape the loaf:
   Form the meat mixture into a loaf shape and place it in the center of the prepared baking sheet.

4. Bake:
   Bake for 45 minutes.

5. Prepare the glaze:
   In a small bowl, mix all glaze ingredients until smooth and well combined.

6. Glaze and finish baking:
   Remove the meatloaf from the oven. Spread the glaze evenly over the top. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 15–20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

7. Rest and serve:
   Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute and keeps the meatloaf moist and tender.

💡 Notes

• Chop the onion finely to ensure it cooks through. For extra tenderness, you can sauté it before adding to the mix.

• Avoid overmixing the meatloaf mixture; mix just until combined for a tender result.

• Resting the meatloaf after baking is crucial for retaining juices and easy slicing.
