Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, diced onion, 1 tbsp mustard, salt, and pepper in a bowl until just mixed.

  2. Step 2

    Divide meat into 4 portions. Wrap each around a hard-boiled egg, sealing the meat around it into an oval loaf.

  3. Step 3

    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Sear meatloaves 3 minutes per side until golden brown.

  4. Step 4

    Remove meatloaves to a plate. Pour broth into the skillet, scraping up browned bits with a spoon.

  5. Step 5

    Stir in remaining 2 tbsp mustard and chopped pickle. Return meatloaves to the pan and simmer 4 minutes until heated through.

  6. Step 6

    Serve meatloaves with pan sauce spooned over the top.
