Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

In a large bowl, gently combine the ground beef, minced onion, green bell pepper, and garlic. Be careful not to overmix. (5 minutes)

03

Step
3 mins

Add the seasoned bread crumbs, beaten egg, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper to the meat mixture. Mix until just combined. (3 minutes)

04

Step
2 mins

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Pour this mixture over the meat mixture and gently incorporate it. (2 minutes)

05

Step
5 mins

Shape the meat mixture into an 8x4-inch loaf. Place it on a rimmed baking sheet. (5 minutes)

06

Step
1 mins

Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the top and sides of the meatloaf. (1 minute)

07

Step
1 hrs

Bake in the preheated oven until the meatloaf is no longer pink in the center and a thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C), about 1 hour. (60 minutes)

08

Step
10 mins

Remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful meatloaf. (10 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of your favorite hot sauce to the meat mixture.
To prevent the meatloaf from sticking to the baking sheet, line it with parchment paper.
Leftovers are fantastic in sandwiches or crumbled into chili.
Consider using a meat thermometer to ensure accurate cooking.
