Step 1
• Adjust rack to top position (middle and top positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.• Dice potatoes into ½-inch pieces. Halve and peel shallot; thinly slice one half and mince remaining. Trim and halve Brussels sprouts lengthwise.• Place potatoes in a large pot with enough salted water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, 15-20 minutes. • Reserve ½ cup potato cooking liquid; then drain and return potatoes to pot.
Step 2
• While potatoes cook, in a large bowl, combine beef*, panko, minced shallot, half the garlic powder (you’ll use the rest later), and 1 TBSP water (2 TBSP for 4 servings); season generously with saltand pepper. • Form mixture into two 1-inch-tall loaves (four loaves for 4).
Step 3
• Place meatloaves on one side of a lightlyoiled baking sheet. TIP: Line sheet with foil first for easier cleanup.• Toss Brussels sprouts on empty side with a drizzle of oil; season generously with salt and pepper. • Roast on top rack until meatloaves are cooked through and Brussels sprouts are browned and tender, 15-20 minutes. (For 4 servings, use 2 baking sheets; roast meatloaves on middle rack and Brussels sprouts on top rack.) TIP: If Brussels sprouts finish first, remove from sheet and continue roasting meatloaves.
Step 4
• While everything roasts, strip thyme leaves from stems; finely chop leaves until you have ½ tsp (1 tsp for 4 servings).• Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium pan over medium-high heat. Add chopped thyme and sliced shallot; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until softened, 2-4 minutes. • Stir in stock concentrate and ¼ cup water(1⁄3 cup water for 4). Bring to a boil, then reduce to a low simmer. Cook until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. • Turn off heat. Stir in half the sour cream(you’ll use the rest in the next step) and 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for until melted and combined. Season with saltand pepper.
Step 5
• Heat pot with drained potatoes over low heat; add 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings), remaining sour cream, and remaining garlic powder. • Mash until smooth and creamy, addingsplashes of reserved potato cooking liquid as needed. Season with saltand pepper.
Step 6
• If necessary, reheat pan with sauce over low heat; stir until warmed through. • Divide meatloaves, mashed potatoes, and Brussels sprouts between plates. Spoon sauce over meatloaves and serve.
