Ingredients
  

  • 1 Tbs Butter
  • 1 Chopped Red Onion
  • 1 Sliced Leek
  • 8 Pieces Prosciutto
  • 1 Pound Ground Beef
  • 1/2 Cup Panko
  • 1/2 Cup 2% Milk
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 Tbs Soy Sauce
  • 1 1/2 Tsp Salt
  • 1/2 Tsp Fresh Ground Pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Chop the red onion and clean and slice the leek.
  • Get a sauce pan on the stove over medium heat.
  • Add the butter and the red onion to the pan and cook for about 7 minutes until tender.
  • Then add the leek and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
  • Next add the beef, panko, milk, egg, soy sauce, salt and pepper to a large bowl.
  • Add the onions and leek to the same bowl.
  • Next pull the prosciutto into smaller pieces and add to the same pan you just cooked the onions and leeks in, cook at medium heat.
  • Cook the prosciutto until it's browned (but not burned) and caramelized about 3 minutes.
  • Add the prosciutto to the bowl and mix together all the ingredients until well combined - I always use my hands, feel free to use a spoon!
  • Split the mixture into two halves and plop them onto a baking sheet.
  • Form them into two loaves and pop into the oven.
  • Cook for 45 minutes, remove and let cool for a few minutes, then serve with a dollop of creamy mashed potatoes and caramelized carrots. YUM.
