Step 1
Combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, diced onion, 1 tbsp mustard, salt, and pepper in a bowl until just mixed.
Step 2
Divide meat into 4 portions. Wrap each around a hard-boiled egg, sealing the meat around it into an oval loaf.
Step 3
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Sear meatloaves 3 minutes per side until golden brown.
Step 4
Remove meatloaves to a plate. Pour broth into the skillet, scraping up browned bits with a spoon.
