From the Test Kitchen

To elevate this savory turkey meatloaf, we’re topping it with a delicious, buttery pan sauce made with garlic, capers, and fresh tomatoes, which we crush with a spoon as they cook to release their sweet natural juices. For a hearty accompaniment, we’re roasting the meatloaf alongside broccoli and onion coated with a bit of romano cheese for extra richness.

Prepare the vegetables:
1 Prepare the vegetables:

Place an oven rack in the center of the oven, then preheat to 450°F. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Lightly oil a sheet pan. Cut off and discard the bottom 1/2 inch of the broccoli stem; cut the broccoli into small florets. Halve and peel the onion; cut into 1-inch-wide wedges, separating the layers. Combine in a large bowl. Add half the cheese and 2 teaspoons of olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Stir to coat. 

Prepare the meatloaf:
2 Prepare the meatloaf:

In a bowl, combine the turkey, egg, spice blend, and breadcrumbs; season with salt and pepper. Gently mix to combine. Transfer to one side of the oiled sheet pan. Shape into a tightly packed loaf, about 7 inches by 3 inches. 

Roast the meatloaf & vegetables:
3 Roast the meatloaf & vegetables:

Transfer the seasoned vegetables to the other side of the sheet pan of prepared meatloaf. Arrange in an even layer. Roast 16 to 18 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender when pierced with a fork and the meatloaf is cooked through.* Remove from the oven.

Add the halved tomatoes, capers, and chopped garlic; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 3 to 4 minutes, or until softened. Add the vinegar (carefully, as the liquid may splatter), remaining butter, and 1 tablespoon of water. Cook, stirring frequently and pressing down on the tomatoes with the back of a spoon, 2 to 3 minutes, or until thoroughly combined and the sauce is slightly thickened. Turn off the heat.
