Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Start by heating a drizzle of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and bell peppers. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until soft and slightly caramelized.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, sautéed onions, and bell peppers. Add breadcrumbs, the large egg, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Gently mix everything together until just combined.
  3. Transfer the meat mixture into a loaf pan, or shape it by hand on a baking tray. Make sure it's compact, yet airy.
  4. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the meatloaf in the center of the oven and bake for about 55-60 minutes.
  5. When finished baking, let it rest for 10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute. After resting, slice it into generous portions.
  6. For garnish, consider adding freshly chopped parsley or additional sautéed peppers and onions.
