4 servings
- 4 strips bacon, finely chopped
Chef's tipCook it like regular bacon. It's leaner and releases little fat, so add a splash of oil to the pan if needed. - 1 ½ lb ground turkey (93% lean)
- ¾ cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
Chef's tipIf the dish is baked or melted, cover it or keep the heat gentle - dairy-free shreds melt more slowly than dairy cheese. - 4 scallions, thinly sliced (green and light green parts only)
- ⅓ cup plain breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- 2 tbsp whole milk
Chef's tipUse an unsweetened variety so it won't add sweetness, especially in savory dishes. - 1 tsp worcestershire sauce
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp smoked paprika
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Set a wire rack inside a rimmed baking sheet and brush or spray the rack lightly with oil.

Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the fat has rendered and the pieces are crisp, about 6–8 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate and let cool for 5 minutes.
