(from giuntafamily’s recipe box)
Source: Claire Robinson 5-ingredient fix
Categories: Turkey Main Dish
Ingredients
- 2 pounds ground turkey
- 1 1/2 cups bread crumbs, homemade from good soft and sweet bread
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 1/2 cups herb and oil marinated sun-dried tomatoes, pureed in a food processor, plus oil for griddle, preferably with garlic, herbs and dried tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage leaves
- Pinch salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
-
Mix all of the ingredients thoroughly in a large bowl, reserving 1/2 cup of sun-dried tomato puree. Form the mixture into a loaf and transfer it to a baking dish. Cover and bake until the internal temperature registers 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 1 hour. Remove the baking dish from the oven. Spread the reserved puree on top, then return it to the oven, and bake uncovered for 10 to 15 minutes.
-
When ready to serve, heat up a little oil from the sun-dried tomatoes in a nonstick skillet or griddle. Cut the meatloaf into about 1-inch slices and add to the skillet. Crisp on both sides for an extra layer of texture.
