Turkey Stuffin' Meatloaf with Scallion Mashed Potatoes and Green Beans
(well, without the potatoes and beans - I don't think they'd freeze well)
This recipe makes 2 large loaves, which in actuality are 4 regular sized loaves. SO AWESOME
Ingredients
2 tablespoons EVOO
6 tablespoons butter
1 large onion, chopped
5-6 celery ribs from the heart with leafy tops, chopped
1 bay leaf
salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 (16oz) bag stuffing cubes, such as Pepperidge Farm
2 tablespoons poultry seasoning
6 cups chicken stock
3 pounds ground turkey or ground turkey breast
2 eggs
And for the gravy: you will be using some of the butter and chicken stock above, plus you'll need 1/4 cup all purpose flour
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 400F
In a large skillet heat the 2 tablespoons of EVOO with 2 tablespoons of the butter over medium-high heat. Add the onions, celery, and bay leaf, season with salt and pepper, and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Add the stuffing cubes to the skillet, season with poultry seasoning, then moisten with 4 cups of the chicken stock. Discard the bay leaf. Place the stuffing in a bowl and cool.
Once the stuffing is cool enough to handle, add the turkey and the eggs, and season with salt and pepper. Mix the turkey with the stuffing. Form the meat mixture into 2 long loaves on a nonstick baking sheet. Drizzle the loaves with EVOO and back for about an hour, or until the meatloaves are brown and cooked through and they register 165F on a meat thermometer.
For the gravy: Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter in a sauce pot. Add the flour and whisk over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes. Whisk in the remaining 2 cups of stock and cook for 6-7 minutes or until it thickens.
Yum.
Thank you!! I bet it would taste awesome with some cranberry sauce!
