Categories     main-dish

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 small onions, 1 finely chopped and 1 cut into half-moon slices
3 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
1 1/2 pounds dark meat ground turkey
3/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons seasoned breadcrumbs
1 large egg
1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons ketchup
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for sprinkling
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a small skillet over medium-low heat until hot but not smoking. Add the chopped onion and saute until softened and brown, about 6 minutes. Add the parsley and cook for another minute. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the turkey with the breadcrumbs, egg, 1/4 cup of the ketchup, cooked onion mixture, salt and pepper. Mix until fully combined. Form into a loaf and transfer to a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan. Using a pastry brush or the back of a spoon, brush the remaining 3 tablespoons of ketchup over the loaf.
  • Evenly scatter the sliced onions over the loaf, drizzle with the remaining tablespoon of oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until the meatloaf is cooked through, 55 to 60 minutes.

BEST TURKEY MEATLOAF



Best Turkey Meatloaf image

After much trial and error trying to make a more healthy meatloaf, I came up with this recipe. It is important to make this on a baking sheet so the liquids can be drained off the meatloaf. Also, do not put the topping on before the meatloaf has cooked for 30 minutes. Turkey creates a lot of juices, so if you put the topping on first it will become watery and runny.

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 ½ pounds ground turkey
¾ cup crushed buttery round crackers
½ cup milk
1 small onion, chopped
1 egg
1 ½ teaspoons salt
2 cloves garlic, minced
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ cup ketchup
¼ cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a jelly roll pan.
  • Mix ground turkey, buttery round cracker crumbs, milk, onion, egg, salt, garlic, and black pepper in a bowl; shape into a loaf and place on the prepared jelly roll pan.

THE BEST TURKEY MEATLOAF



The Best Turkey Meatloaf image

A slightly lighter version of the all-American classic, this satisfying meatloaf uses chicken broth and soaked panko to stay moist, and a mix of fresh herbs for flavor. It's the best turkey meatloaf you'll find!

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
1 teaspoon minced fresh sage
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cloves garlic, grated
1 tablespoon tomato paste
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
3/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/2 cup chicken broth
3 pounds ground turkey
2 large eggs
1/2 cup ketchup

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, thyme, sage, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Cook, stirring often, until the onions are softened, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute more. Add the tomato paste and cook for 1 minute, stirring to incorporate. Stir in the Worcestershire. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
  • Add the panko to a large mixing bowl and pour over the chicken broth so the breadcrumbs soak up the liquid. Add the turkey, eggs, 2 teaspoons salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and the cooled onion mixture and mix well with your hands until well combined. Form the mixture into a 10-by-5-inch loaf on the foil-lined baking sheet. Coat the top and sides with the ketchup.
  • Put the meatloaf in the oven and reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Bake until a thermometer inserted in the center of the loaf reads 165 degrees F, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 cups chopped yellow onions (2 large onions)
2 tablespoons good olive oil
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (1/2 teaspoon dried)
1/3 cup Worcestershire sauce

  • Combine the ground turkey, bread crumbs, eggs, and onion mixture in a large bowl. Mix well and shape into a rectangular loaf on an ungreased sheet pan. Spread the ketchup evenly on top. Bake for 1 1/2 hours until the internal temperature is 160 degrees F. and the meatloaf is cooked through. (A pan of hot water in the oven under the meatloaf will keep the top from cracking.)
