Ingredients

    • 1 1/2 pounds ground turkey, preferably 85 percent lean/15 percent fat, or a mix of ground breast and thigh meat
    • 2/3 cup chopped yellow onion
    • 1/2 cup chopped red or green bell pepper
    • 1/2 cup unseasoned dried bread crumbs
    • 1/3 cup chopped celery
    • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
    • 1/2 cup ketchup
    • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
    • 1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
    • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    • 1 tablespoon hot sauce
    • 1 tablespoon Emeril's Original Essence or Creole Seasoning (http://www.marthastewart.com/261674/creole-seasoning)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees with rack positioned in center of oven.
  2. Place turkey in a large bowl. Add onion, bell pepper, breadcrumbs, celery, egg, 1 tablespoon ketchup, garlic, Essence, salt, and pepper. Gently mix until ingredients are well combined. Transfer turkey mixture to a 1-pound loaf pan; form into a domed loaf shape.
  3. Place remaining ketchup in a small bowl; stir in hot sauce. Spoon ketchup mixture evenly over meatloaf, spreading with the back of a spoon.
  4. Bake until meatloaf is browned on top, cooked through, and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 165 degrees, 45 to 50 minutes.
  5. Remove pan from oven and let meatloaf stand 5 minutes before serving.
