3 Videos | Photo: Turkey Meatloaf Recipe
Ingredients
- 3 cups chopped yellow onions (2 large onions)
- 2 tablespoons good olive oil
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (1/2 teaspoon dried)
- 1/3 cup Worcestershire sauce
- 3/4 cup chicken stock
- 1 1/2 teaspoons tomato paste
- 5 pounds ground turkey breast
- 1 1/2 cups plain dry bread crumbs
- 3 extra-large eggs, beaten
- 3/4 cup ketchup
Directions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
In a medium saute pan, over medium-low heat, cook the onions, olive oil, salt, pepper, and thyme until translucent, but not browned, approximately 15 minutes. Add the Worcestershire sauce, chicken stock, and tomato paste and mix well. Allow to cool to room temperature.
Combine the ground turkey, bread crumbs, eggs, and onion mixture in a large bowl. Mix well and shape into a rectangular loaf on an ungreased sheet pan. Spread the ketchup evenly on top. Bake for 1 1/2 hours until the internal temperature is 160 degrees F. and the meatloaf is cooked through. (A pan of hot water in the oven under the meatloaf will keep the top from cracking.) Serve hot, at room temperature, or cold in a sandwich.

Wow! This was really good! Thanks to the person sheila (below my comment for posting the revised recipe , however I was too nervous to do 1/3 of worcestershire so I did 1/9 of a cup. I used the shady brook farms pack which is I think about a pound and a third. maybe next time I'll make 5 pounds and freeze it. Looking forward to trying it on a sandwich.

The only problem was the enormity of the recipe. I didn't know exactly how I was going to scale it down to feed only two. Luckily, I kept reading the comments and, thanks to Mary from Illinois, I didn't even have to experiment with the measurements because she listed everything that she did and it worked out fine.
She revised the recipe to 1 lb turkey, 1 onion, 1tbs olive oil, 1tsp salt, 1/2 tsp pepper, 1tsp fresh thyme, 1/3 cup worcestershire, 1/2 cup chicken stock, 1tsp tomato paste, 3/4 cup breadcrumbs, 1 egg, and 1/4 cup ketchup. I also added a couple cloves of garlic. Cook for one hour. I served it with mashed potatoes and roasted brussel sprouts. Sooo yummy!

My family really liked this. Based on other reviews I reduced meatloaf to 3 pounds but kept other ingredients the same. Added 2 cups chopped mushrooms which I sauteed in a bit of olive oil. Next time I will will just saute with the onions. I put turkey mixture in 2 greased bread tins and froze one unbaked for another night. I willl definitely make this again.
