Ingredients
– 1/4 cup ketchup
– 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
– 1/2 small onion, minced
– 1 teaspoon olive oil
– 1.3 pounds ground turkey (93% or 99% lean)
– 1/2 cup seasoned whole wheat or gluten-free breadcrumbs
– 1 egg
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1 teaspoon marjoram
Instructions
1-Getting started with turkey meatloaf: Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit to set the stage for even cooking. This step ensures your meatloaf bakes just right without any fuss.
2-Mixing the glaze and ingredients: In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons ketchup with Worcestershire sauce to create a simple glaze. Next, heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a pan and cook the 1/2 small minced onion over low heat until it turns translucent, which takes about 3 to 5 minutes, then remove it from the heat. In a large bowl, combine the 1.3 pounds ground turkey, cooked onion, 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, 1 egg, 1/4 cup ketchup, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon marjoram, mixing gently until just combined to avoid a tough texture.
3-Shaping and baking the meatloaf: Shape the mixture into a loaf and place it in a loaf pan, or form it freehand on a baking sheet. Spoon the ketchup mixture from earlier on top for that extra flavor boost. Bake uncovered for 55 to 60 minutes, then let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing to keep it juicy and easy to serve.
