Ingredients
- 2 lbs lean ground turkey ⓘ
- 2/3 cup rolled oats
- 2 eggs, whisked ⓘ
- 1 medium onion, diced ⓘ
- 3 garlic cloves, minced ⓘ
- 1/2 tablespoon olive oil ⓘ
- 2 tablespoons fennel seeds, toasted ⓘ
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon italian seasoning ⓘ
- 1/2 tablespoon garlic powder ⓘ
- 1 teaspoon salt ⓘ
- 1 teaspoon black pepper ⓘ
- 15 ounces canned tomato sauce, divided ⓘ
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Place fennel seeds in a small, non stick pan over medium high heat on your stove top to roast. Occasionally stir or shake seeds as they roast. Roast until seeds start to appear a bit golden in color instead of greenish, about 2 minutes. Be careful, they will go from toasted to burnt very quickly.
- Place the diced onion and olive oil in a non stick pan, sprinkle with salt and saute. To avoid burning, add the minced garlic to the onions after a few minutes. Saute onions and garlic until tender.
- In a large bowl, combine turkey, oats, whisked eggs, sauteed onion and garlic, fennel seed, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and about 3 tablespoons of the canned tomato sauce, reserving the remaining sauce. Combine well using your hands or a large spoon.
- Spray the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray. Turn meat mixture out into the baking dish and form into a rectangular loaf that ends about an inch and a half from the sides of the pan. I like to flatten the top of the loaf and then form an indentation around the top to make a lip. This helps to keep the tomato sauce on top of the loaf.
- Pour the remaining tomato sauce on top of the loaf spooning some onto the sides of the loaf.
- Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 55 minutes.
