Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).

Crack the egg into the bowl and add chopped parsley, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Transfer the turkey mixture into the prepared loaf pan. Press it down gently to shape it into a compact loaf.
Place the loaf pan in the oven and bake for 55β60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165Β°F (74Β°C). You can check this with a meat thermometer.
