serveringsstørrelse 4 people

Ingredienser
  

  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 cup cooked wild rice, cooled
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 cup plain breadcrumbs
  • 1/3 cup finely diced yellow onion
  • 1/3 cup dried cranberries, roughly chopped
  • 1 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/3 cup whole-berry cranberry sauce
  • 2 tablespoons orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Heat the oven to 375°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, cooked wild rice, egg, breadcrumbs, diced onion, chopped dried cranberries, orange zest, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until the ingredients are evenly distributed. Avoid overmixing, which can make the loaf dense.
  • Shape the mixture into a compact loaf on the prepared baking sheet, about 8 inches long and 4 inches wide.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the cranberry sauce, orange juice, honey, and Dijon mustard. Spoon about half of the glaze over the meatloaf, spreading it across the top.
  • Bake for 40 minutes. Spoon the remaining glaze over the top, then bake for another 10 to 15 minutes, until the center reaches 165°F on an instant-read thermometer.
  • Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Spoon any glaze from the pan over the slices when serving.

merknader

Use fully cooled wild rice so it blends easily without warming the raw turkey. For tidy slices, let the loaf rest before cutting, and save a little extra cranberry-orange glaze to serve at the table.
