Category: Sandwiches
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  


2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 medium onion , chopped fine
1/2 tsp table salt
2 cloves garlic , minced
1/2 tsp chili powder
1 pound ground turkey

Ground black pepper
1 tsp brown sugar
1 cup tomato puree
1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup water
1/4 tsp hot pepper sauce
4 hamburger buns

Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add onion and salt and stir until coated with oil. Reduce heat to medium, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft, about 10 minutes (if onion begins to burn after 5 minutes, reduce heat to low). Add garlic and chili powder and cook, uncovered, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add turkey and cook, breaking up meat with wooden spoon, until just pink, about 3 minutes.

Add 1/4 tsp pepper, brown sugar, tomato puree, ketchup, water, and hot sauce. Simmer until Sloppy Joe sauce is slightly thicker than ketchup, 8 to 10 minutes. Adjust seasonings. Spoon meat mixture onto hamburger buns and serve. Serves 4

NOTE: Be careful not to cook the meat beyond pink in step 1; if you let it brown at this point it will end up dry and crumbly. The meat will finish cooking once the liquid ingredients are added. Serve, piled high on a bun, with your favorite pickles.

Make Ahead: If you find yourself with leftover Sloppy Janes or just feel like making a double batch, the meat mixture freezes well for up to one month. To return the meat mixture to its original consistency, you may need to add a little water when it is reheated.
