Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion finely chopped
3 cloves garlic minced
2 lbs ground turkey
2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
2 eggs
1¼ cups Kansas City Style Barbecue Sauce or your favorite kind
⅓ cup ketchup
1 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a large baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
Heat the olive oil in a medium-sized skillet over medium-low heat. Cook until the onion is lightly browned on the edges and tender. Reduce the heat to low and add the garlic.
In a large bowl, mix the ground turkey, onion mixture, Italian seasoning, black pepper, Panko breadcrumbs, eggs, and ¾ cup barbecue sauce. Shape it into a wide loaf in the prepared baking dish.
In a small bowl, mix the remaining barbecue sauce, ketchup, and Worcestershire Sauce.
Spread ⅓ of the glaze over the meatloaf and place it in the oven. Be sure to wash the spoon afterward, since it came into contact with raw meat.
Bake for 40 minutes and then spread the remaining glaze over the meatloaf. Bake for 20-30 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees.
Cover loosely with an aluminum foil tent and let it rest for 10 minutes. If desired, sprinkle with fresh parsley.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave for short intervals until warm.
