Easy Turkey Meatloaf Recipe

🧂 Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 medium yellow onion

  chopped
• 2 garlic cloves

  minced
• 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme

  or 1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 ½ tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1/3 cup water
• 2 teaspoons tomato paste
• 1 ¼ pound ground turkey
• 1/4 cup plain dry bread crumbs
• 1 egg

  beaten
• 1/3 cup ketchup

Instructions

• 1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a casserole dish or sheet pan with
  foil. Or grease a loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• 2 Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until translucent and
  softened. Add the garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper and cook for another minute or
  until fragrant. Remove from heat and add Worcestershire sauce, water, and tomato
  paste. Allow it to cool slightly; about 5 minutes.
• 3 In a large bowl, combine the onion mixture, bread crumbs, and egg. Gently fold
  in the ground turkey. The mixture will be very wet.
• 4 Shape the loaf into an oval or rectangular shape and transfer to the prepared
  casserole, baking sheet, or loaf pan. Spread ketchup evenly over the top. Fill a
  pie plate or baking pan with very hot tap water and set it on the bottom shelf
  of your oven. Place the meatloaf on the middle shelf and bake for 50 minutes to
  1 hour, or until the internal temperature
