MINI TURKEY MEATLOAVES

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h20m

Yield 18 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Nonstick cooking spray, for the pan
1 1/2 cups regular oats
1 cup whole milk
2 1/2 pounds ground turkey
4 slices bacon, cut into very small bits
3 tablespoons finely minced fresh parsley, plus more for serving
1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt, such as Lawry's
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 cup ketchup, plus more if needed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Generously coat 18 standard muffin cups (from two 12-cup muffin pans) with cooking spray.
  • Put the oats in a small bowl and slowly pour the milk over them. Stir to make sure the oats are all coated and then let them sit for a few minutes.
  • Put the turkey and bacon in a separate large bowl and add the oats and any extra milk from the bowl to it. Add the parsley, seasoned salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes and 1/4 cup of the ketchup. Use your hands to mix it all together. Place a 1/4-cup scoop of the mixture in each greased muffin cup. Squirt about 1/2 teaspoon of the remaining ketchup on top of each meatloaf. Use a spoon to smear the ketchup evenly over the top, then use it to nudge the edges of the meatloaves away from the pan a bit (this just neatens them up a little).
  • Bake for 25 minutes, then carefully squirt another 1/2 teaspoon of ketchup on top of each, spreading it carefully with a spoon to cover as much of the surface as possible. Continue to bake until completely cooked through and sizzling around the edges, about another 30 minutes. If there are any large areas without ketchup, go ahead and squirt/spread more as needed.
  • Sprinkle the meatloaves with parsley, then let them sit in the pan for 5 to 7 minutes before serving. Run a sharp knife around the edges of the loaves to loosen them if they stick. Serve them warm with a veggie on the side

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 onion, roughly chopped
3 carrots (1 roughly chopped, 2 grated)
2 cloves garlic
1 1/2 pounds lean ground turkey
1 large egg
1/2 cup panko
1/4 cup whole milk
1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons Buffalo hot sauce (such as Frank?s RedHot)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 cups finely chopped broccoli florets
4 stalks celery, thinly sliced
1/2 cup blue cheese dressing

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450˚ F. Combine the onion, chopped carrot and garlic in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped; transfer to a large bowl. Add the turkey, egg, panko, milk, 2 tablespoons hot sauce, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Mix well with your hands. Form into four 3/4-inch-thick oval patties on a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Bake the patties until lightly browned, firm and a thermometer inserted into the centers registers 160˚ F, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Whisk the melted butter and remaining 1/3 cup hot sauce in a bowl. Brush the tops of the meatloaves with half of the sauce, then return to the oven until the sauce is baked in, about 4 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush with the remaining sauce.
  • Transfer the meatloaves to plates. Toss the broccoli, grated carrots and celery with the blue cheese dressing; serve with the meatloaves.

Time 1h5m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

cooking spray
1 (20 ounce) package ground turkey
1 small onion, grated
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¼ cup butter
½ cup hot pepper sauce (such as Frank's RedHot®)
1 teaspoon garlic powder, or to taste
1 teaspoon onion powder, or to taste
1 cup sour cream
½ cup mayonnaise
½ cup blue cheese crumbles
½ teaspoon garlic powder, or to taste
½ teaspoon onion powder, or to taste
1 pinch black pepper, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with aluminum foil; spray lightly with cooking spray.
  • Combine ground turkey, grated onion, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl; mix to combine. Transfer turkey mixture to baking pan and shape into a loaf.
  • Bake meatloaf in the preheated oven until light golden, about 40 minutes.
  • Melt butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in hot pepper sauce, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1 teaspoon onion powder. Pour evenly over meatloaf.
  • Return meatloaf to the oven and cook until flavors are absorbed, about 5 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Combine sour cream, mayonnaise, and blue cheese crumbs in a bowl to make blue cheese dressing. Season with 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, and black pepper. Serve alongside meatloaf.

Tips:

  • Use lean ground turkey: This will help to keep the meatballs moist and prevent them from becoming dry.
  • Add plenty of flavor: The buffalo sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder will all help to add flavor to the meatballs. You can also add other spices, such as cumin, chili powder, or paprika, to taste.
  • Don't overmix the meatloaf mixture: Overmixing can make the meatballs tough. Just mix until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the meatballs at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy crust on the outside of the meatballs and keep the inside moist.
  • Serve the meatballs with your favorite dipping sauce: Ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, or honey mustard are all good choices.

Conclusion:

These mini buffalo turkey meatloaves are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can also be made ahead of time and reheated.
