Sarasotas Best Turkey Meatloaf Recipes

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 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 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.
• Mix ketchup, brown sugar, and Worcestershire sauce in a separate bowl; set aside.
• Bake meatloaf in preheated oven for 30 minutes; remove from oven and drain liquids. Top meatloaf with ketchup topping. Return loaf to oven and continue baking until no longer pink in the center, about 30 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

Steps:

• Bread -- soak the slices of bread in the milk and then squeeze the milk out. Crumble and break it up and add to a large bowl.
• Meatloaf -- Then to that same bowl add all the other ingredients, except for the turkey and the ingredients for the topping and mix well to combine. Then add in the turkey and mix being careful to over mix. Over mixing can make tough meatloaf.
• Bake -- I like to use a baking sheet and free form my meatloaf but you could certainly use a loaf pan. I line a baking sheet and than form the meatloaf in a loaf type of shape. Bake in a 375 degree oven for about 45-50 minutes until done. It really depends on how thick or what type of pan you cook the loaf inches.
• Sauce -- Mix the BBQ sauce, marmalade, and scallions and spoon or brush on the top of the loaf after the meatloaf is cooked half way. Then brush on again in another 10-15 minutes. And then right at end if you have any sauce left, brush or spoon on the remaining sauce and cook just another couple of minutes before finishing.
• Serve -- Let set 5 minutes before slicing.
• Don't forget you can always use a traditional tomato sauce or ketchup topping if you prefer, but I love this for a twist. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Place panko and milk in a large bowl; stir until well combined. Let stand 5 minutes.
• Add turkey, onions, eggs, 1/4 cup ketchup, parsley, mustard, salt, sage, and pepper to breadcrumb mixture. Gently mix until well combined. Transfer mixture to a 9 3/4-inch-by-5 3/4-inch loaf pan. Brush top with remaining 2 tablespoons ketchup.
• Transfer meatloaf to oven and bake, draining any accumulated juices as necessary, until it reaches 165 degrees on an instant-read thermometer, 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 hours. Serve immediately or use to prepare sandwiches.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Mix ground turkey, oats, 1/2 chopped onion, pear applesauce, 3 tablespoons chili powder, egg, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl; press into an 8-inch square baking dish.
• Heat olive oil in a small saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir 2 tablespoons onion until softened and lightly browned, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir brown sugar, barbeque sauce, and 1 teaspoon chili powder into onion; cook over low heat until sauce is warm, about 5 minutes.
• Bake meatloaf in the preheated oven, occasionally brushing sauce over the top, until cooked through, about 50 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Vegetables -- First. I just used my mini food processor to fine chop the vegetables - saves tons of time, but you can chop them by hand if you want. In a small saucepan melt the butter and saute the onion, celery, carrot and garlic on medium heat. Don't cook them too fast, you want them to sweat slowly for about 5 minutes until they are tender.
• Base -- Then transfer the vegetables to a large bowl .Add in the egg, steak sauce, worcestershire, oregano, thyme, parsley, marjoram or dried oregano (both will well, I just love the fresh marjoram if you have it), salt and pepper. Mix well to combine.
• Bread -- In a flat pan or dish, add the milk and soak each slice of bread just for a few seconds and then squeeze out most of the milk. Add the bread slices breaking them up into the bowl. Save the milk, don't throw it out. Mix the bread crumbs inches.
• Meat -- Quick Note: You can use all beef for this, but I really prefer the mix. You could also, substitute turkey for the veal if you want, but - Beef, Veal and Pork are my favorites.
• Now, add in the meat. You can use a spoon, but honestly, I use my hands to mix everything together. You don't want to over mix as the meat can get tough.
• Loaf -- I prefer to free form my loaf rather than using a loaf pan, but if you want, you can use a loaf pan. If using a pan, I line it with parchment paper, but I really prefer to form mine on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. This way when you glaze the meat loaf you can glaze the sides as well. This is the way we always did it in the restaurant. As mentioned above, you can make 2 smaller loafs vs 1 loaf, the cooking time is all that changes.
• Glaze -- In a small bowl, mix the ketchup, brown sugar and cider vinegar together.
• Cook -- Middle shelf in a 350 degree oven. Depending on on thick you make your loaf, it should take between 50 minutes to 1 hour 15 minutes. I make mine fairly thick so it takes just about 1 hr 15 minute Bake for about 40-45 minutes and then glaze. Cook another 10-15 min and glaze one more time. Once done, remove and let rest 5 minutes before slicing.
• Serve -- Just slice and enjoy! As I said, sour cream and chive potatoes and pan seared green beans are my favorite with this dish.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Heat the oil in a large frying pan and cook the onion for 8-10 mins until softened. Add the garlic, Worcestershire sauce and 2 tsp tomato purée, and stir until combined. Set aside to cool.
• Put the turkey mince, egg, breadcrumbs and cooled onion mix in a large bowl and season well. Mix everything to combine, then shape into a rectangular loaf and place in a large roasting tin. Spread 2 tbsp barbecue sauce over the meatloaf and bake for 30 mins.
• Meanwhile, drain 1 can of beans only, then pour both cans into a large bowl. Add the remaining barbecue sauce and tomato purée. Season and set aside.
• When the meatloaf has had its initial cooking time, scatter the beans around the outside and bake for 15 mins more until the meatloaf is cooked through and the beans are piping hot. Scatter over the parsley and serve the meatloaf in slices.

Steps:

• Leeks -- In a small sauce pan on medium high heat, add the butter and melt. Then add the garlic, leeks and cook on medium (you don't want to brown them) for about 5 minutes until tender. Then add in the scallions and diced turkey and cook another minute. Don't forget to salt and pepper well.
• Crust -- As the leeks saute, make your crust. Now I prefer to use a tart pan, but not everyone has one. You can make a rough or rustic tart and just lightly crimp the sides up around the tart which is fine. But you want something around 10-12" round. A pizza pan also works for this and you can also make this on a pizza stone. If making it on a pizza stone or a pizza pan I line with parchment paper, so it doesn't stick (not necessary, just something I liked to do). If using a tart pan, spray with non stick spray.
• Unroll the pizza dough and roll on a floured surface into a circle. About 14-16", thin but you don't want it falling apart. Then in the tart pan, pat on the bottom and then pat up the sides. If using a pizza stone, pan, etc., don't crimp up the edges until you fill the crust with the fillings.
• Potatoes -- To your leftover potatoes, add in the chives, egg, garlic, and 1/4 cup cheese. Mix the potatoes well and then spread the potato mixture on to the pizza dough.
• Note: If using fresh homemade mashed potatoes vs leftovers, just make a basic recipe with butter and cream and then add in the chives, egg, garlic and cheese liked stated above.
• Tart -- For the tart pan, fill the bottom of the pan. If using a pizza stone or pizza pan, spread the potatoes on the pizza dough leaving 2" around the edge so you can fold them over form a crust. Just don't fill it all the way to the edge.
• Leeks and Turkey -- Spread the leeks, scallion, garlic and turkey mixture over the potato and top with the remaining cheese.
• Bake -- In a 375 degree oven, bake for 20 minutes until golden brown. If using a pizza stone, don't forget to heat up the stone first. After the cheese is melted and the crust is golden brown, remove and let set just 5 minutes before serving.
• Serving -- Cut in slices like a pizza and serve with a scoop of cranberry sauce on the top. Serve with balsamic green beans and a pumpkin parfait. Leftovers are great!
