Real Simple Magazine Turkey Meatloaf Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
• In a medium saute pan, over medium-low heat, cook the onions, olive oil, salt, pepper, and thyme until translucent, but not browned, approximately 15 minutes. Add the Worcestershire sauce, chicken stock, and tomato paste and mix well. Allow to cool to room temperature.
• 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.) Serve hot, at room temperature, or cold in a sandwich.

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.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees with rack positioned in center of oven.
• Place turkey in a large bowl. Add onion, bell pepper, breadcrumbs, celery, egg, 1 tablespoon ketchup, garlic, Essence, salt, and pepper. Gently mix until ingredients are well combined. Transfer turkey mixture to a 1-pound loaf pan; form into a domed loaf shape.
• Place remaining ketchup in a small bowl; stir in hot sauce. Spoon ketchup mixture evenly over meatloaf, spreading with the back of a spoon.
• Bake until meatloaf is browned on top, cooked through, and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 165 degrees, 45 to 50 minutes.
• Remove pan from oven and let meatloaf stand 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Combine above ingredients and shape into a loaf on a rimmed baking sheet. Top with 1/2 cup ketchup. Bake at 450 degrees until fully cooked, about 45 minutes.

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.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Combine 2/3 of the garlic, the rosemary, pepper flakes, bread crumbs, salt and pepper. Add the milk and mix. Add the turkey and sausage and mix once more to combine; don't overmix. Transfer onto a board and shape into a fine meatloaf, about 9 inches long and 4 inches wide.
• Place in a baking pan with high sides (a 9 x12 pan with 2-inch sides works well), drizzle with about 2 tablespoons of olive oil and bake for 25 minutes, turning halfway through to brown evenly. Remove from the oven and reduce the heat to 325 degrees.
• Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan over medium heat, fry the bacon in the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil until it starts to curl and its fat is rendered. Add the onions and remaining garlic, cooking until the onions are translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the tomatoes and wine and bring to a boil.
• Pour the sauce over the meatloaf, cover tightly with foil and bake until a meat thermometer inserted at the center reads 150 degrees, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Transfer the meatloaf to a platter and let stand, tented with foil, for 10 to 20 minutes; its internal temperature will rise to 160 to 165. Cut into thick slices, spoon tomato sauce over the top and scatter with torn mint leaves.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet, add 2 tablespoons panko and sauté until panko is golden. Remove and reserve.
• Place walnuts, mint, parsley and basil in a food processor. Pulse until all are finely chopped. Remove and reserve. Without washing processor, turn on and drop garlic in through feed tube and process until minced. Stop, place onion and green pepper in processor and pulse until finely chopped.
• Add remaining oil to skillet and sauté garlic, onion and green pepper mixture over medium heat until soft but not brown. Remove from heat and stir in walnut mixture. Mix remaining panko with 1/2 cup water to soften and add. Place turkey in a large bowl, add contents of skillet and mix until well blended. Season with salt (at least 1 teaspoon) and pepper. Pack into a 9-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan. Spread sautéed panko on top and bake 1 hour 20 minutes.
• Serve hot or at room temperature, with yogurt on the side, or chill and serve cold, in pita with yogurt and cucumbers.
