Rett Main Course
Kategori American
serveringsstørrelse 4 people

Ingredienser
  

  • ½ cup plain breadcrumbs
  • ⅓ cup whole milk
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ small yellow onion, finely diced
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup, divided
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Heat the oven to 350°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, stir the breadcrumbs and milk together. Let them stand for 5 minutes so the breadcrumbs absorb the milk.
  • Add the ground turkey, egg, diced onion, garlic, 1 tablespoon of the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently with your hands or a fork just until combined. Avoid compacting the mixture.
  • Shape the mixture into a compact loaf on the prepared baking sheet. Spread the remaining 1 tablespoon of ketchup over the top.
  • Bake until the center reaches 165°F on an instant-read thermometer, about 50 to 60 minutes. Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing so it holds together.

Keep the mixing light for a softer texture, and check the center temperature near the end of baking to avoid drying out the turkey. Leftovers can be reheated gently, covered, with a small splash of water to help keep the slices moist.
