-
Pour olive oil in a sauté pan and cook unions until soft and translucent over medium low heat. You don't want them to start browning.
-
Add salt and pepper to the onions.
-
Stir in chicken broth, soy sauce, and tomato paste.
-
In a large bowl, combine meat, onion mixture, parsley, eggs, and breadcrumbs.
-
Use a fork to gently combine.
-
Don't overwork the meat mixture as this will make the meatloaf dense.
-
Prepare the slow cooker.
-
Use three sheets of foil laid over each other to line the slower cooker.
-
Fold sides of foil down to create handles you can use to remove the meatloaf from the slow cooker.
-
Place meatloaf mixture into slow cooker and form into loaf shape.
-
Pour ketchup over the top.
-
Cook meatloaf until it reaches 160 degrees. About 4 hours on low.
-
Once meatloaf is cooked, remove from slow cooker using the handles of the foil.
-
Optional : You can place the meatloaf under the broiler for about 5 minutes to caramelize the ketchup.
