Report
Made with lean ground turkey and flavored with onions, garlic, herbs, parmesan and those classic staple sauces. It's juicy, tender and absolutely delicious!

Ingredients
- 1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil, divided
- 1 1/4 cups finely chopped yellow onion (1 medium)
- 1 Tbsp minced garlic (3 cloves)
- 3/4 cup bread crumbs homemade or store-bought*
- 1/3 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 1/2 cup (1.4 oz) finely shredded Parmesan Cheese
- 1 1/2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/3 cup + 1 Tbsp ketchup, divided
- 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
- 3 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley, plus more for garnish
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme
- 1 large egg
- 1 large egg yolk
- 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 2 lbs. 93% lean ground turkey
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with non-stick cooking spray or line with parchment paper.
- Heat 1 Tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add onion and saute until slightly golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and saute 30 seconds longer.
- Meanwhile in a large mixing bowl stir together bread crumbs and chicken broth.
- Add cooked onion mixture to bread crumb mixture and stir. Transfer to fridge to let cool completely about 15 to 20 minutes.
- To cooled mixture add parmesan, Worcestershire, 1 Tbsp ketchup, the dijon, parsley, thyme, egg, egg yolk, salt(you can season with a little more if you want it a little saltier) and pepper. Stir mixture to blend well.
- Add ground turkey and using your hands toss and mix until well combined.
- Shape mixture into a 9 by 4-inch loaf on prepared baking sheet. Brush with remaining 1/2 Tbsp olive oil.
- Bake in preheated oven 45 minutes. Remove meatloaf and brush with remaining 1/3 cup ketchup.
- Return to oven and bake until center registers 165 (I recommend taking temperature in every 1/3 area of the loaf), about 10 to 20 minutes longer.
- Remove from oven and let rest 5 minutes. Sprinkle with a little more parsley (about 1/2 Tbsp) and cut into slices. Serve warm.
Notes
- *You can also use panko bread crumbs. Use 3/4 cup + 3 Tbsp since they are a little lighter by weight than standard bread crumbs and absorb a little less moisture.
