I love a good turkey meatloaf; really hearty, easy to make and you can feed a child army with it! I loaded my recipe up with fresh parsley, oregano and thyme but you can add all your favorite herbs and spices in to make this dish your own. Give it a try and tell me what you think!
Turkey Meatloaf is a crowd favorite.
- 2 cups chopped onions
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 cup carrot very finely diced
- 3 tbs olive oil
- 2 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 tsp chopped oregano
- 1/2 cup fresh parsley finely chopped
- 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves 1/2 teaspoon dried
- 1/3 cup Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 cup chicken stock
- 2 tsps tomato paste
- 3 1/2 lbs ground turkey
- 1 cup dry bread crumbs plain
- 2 large eggs beaten
- 2/3 cup ketchup
Cook the onion in a large skillet over medium heat with 2 tbsp olive oil until translucent, add the garlic and cook an additional 2 minutes.
Add carrot, 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper and cook until softened.
Add Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, 1/3 cup ketchup, chicken stock, oregano, parsley, and thyme, mix and transfer to a bowl to cool.
- In a large bowl mix the turkey, eggs, breadcrumbs and onion/herb mixture. (I’ve found the best way is with clean hands.)
Shape into a rectangular loaf on a lightly oiled baking sheet.
Brush with the remaining ketchup and place in oven at 375F for about 50 minutes or until internal temperature registered at 170F.
Put a pan of water on the bottom rack to help prevent cracking.
- Garnish with parsley
