Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 onion, chopped 
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon tomato paste
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1/4 cup chicken broth or beef broth
• 3/4 cups fresh breadcrumbs

2. Add the tomato paste, thyme, Worcestershire sauce and broth. Bring to a simmer and cook until reduced by half, about 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Turn off the heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
3. Add the onion mixture to the ground beef, eggs and breadcrumbs. Season with salt and pepper. Put the mixture into a loaf pan. 
4. Bake in a preheated 350-degree F oven for about 45 to 50 minutes.
5. While the meatloaf cooks, make the gravy. Bring the beef broth to a boil in a saucepot. Whisk in the garlic powder, onion powder and Worcestershire sauce. Combine the cornstarch and water to make a slurry. Whisk it into the gravy. Cook until it thickens, about 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Serve the gravy over the sliced meatloaf.
