Bubby's Turkey Meatloaf (Dave Lieberman) image

If turkey's not your thing substitute 85-90% lean ground beef. You can also add in 1 1/2 lb new potatoes (that have been cut in half) to the pan with the meatloaf and sauce when you uncover the meatloaf to bake for the last 45 minutes.

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 lbs ground turkey (preferably dark meat only)
2 eggs
3 ounces tomato paste (1/2 of 1 small can, reserving rest for the sauce)
1 teaspoon salt
1/8-1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 cup plain breadcrumbs
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, pressed
3 ounces tomato paste (from reserved 1/2 can)
1 small onion, roughly chopped
1 garlic clove, peeled
1 small red pepper, seeded, cored, and roughly chopped
1 cup water
1/2 teaspoon salt
15 grinds black pepper

Steps:

  • Meatloaf:
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a large mixing bowl, mix together all the ingredients for the meatloaf and work together completely by hand until all ingredients are evenly distributed and the mixture is uniform. Place meat mixture into a 9 by 13-inch baking dish and shape into a loaf about 11 inches long and 4 inches wide. It is important to form it like this so that it cooks evenly throughout. The loaf should be in the middle of the pan with room on both sides for the sauce to pool.
  • Red Pepper Sauce:
  • Place all ingredients in a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. Cover the meatloaf with the sauce and allow excess sauce to pool around the meatloaf. Cover pan with aluminum foil but avoid contact with meat loaf by leaving at least a couple inches of space between the top of the meatloaf and the foil. Bake for 45 minutes, then uncover and bake 45 minutes longer. Let rest for 15 minutes before cutting and serving.
