Kategori Mediterranean
serveringsstørrelse 4 people

Ingredienser
  

  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ cup plain breadcrumbs
  • ¼ cup milk
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup chopped fresh spinach
  • ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 cup dry couscous
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Heat the oven to 375°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. In a small bowl, combine the spinach and feta for the filling.
  • In a large bowl, mix the ground turkey, egg, breadcrumbs, milk, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and black pepper until just combined. Avoid overmixing so the meatloaf stays tender.
  • Pat the turkey mixture into a rectangle about ½ inch thick on the prepared baking sheet. Spoon the spinach and feta mixture down the center, leaving a border around the edges. Fold the turkey over the filling and pinch the seams and ends closed. Shape it into a loaf with the seam underneath.
  • Bake until the center reaches 165°F, about 45 to 55 minutes. Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing so the filling stays in place.
  • While the meatloaf rests, bring the chicken broth and olive oil to a boil in a small saucepan. Stir in the couscous, cover the pan, and remove it from the heat. Let it stand for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork and stir in the lemon zest and lemon juice.
  • Slice the meatloaf and serve it with the lemon couscous.

For meal prep, cool the sliced meatloaf and couscous before packing them into separate freezer-safe portions. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator and reheat until hot throughout. If the couscous seems dry after reheating, stir in a small splash of chicken broth.
