Chicken Meatloaf
This yummy Chicken Meatloaf is anything but boring! Ground chicken, seasonings, herbs mixed together then topped with a tangy glaze! Simple and delicious!A MOIST MEATLOAF RECIPEI think this Chicken Meatloaf is a fabulous alternative to ground beef meatloaf because right now ground chicken is (in most places) cheaper than ground beef. Also, if youre just trying to eat leaner meat, or less red meat, or just want something different, this is a tasty alternative. Plus, it will produce almost no grease, so thats a nice change from your usual ground beef meatloaf!FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:What if I dont have a loaf pan? If you dont want to use a loaf pan, you can form your meatloaf into a loaf shape and place on a baking sheet. Make sure to tightly pack it so that it doesnt break apart. Can this be made in the crock pot? I havent tested this out in a crock pot but I think it could be done. I would refer to my Crock Pot Meatloaf recipe for an idea on how to do that. What do I do if my meatloaf is dried out before cooking? The meatloaf should have a slightly moist consistency before cooking. It shouldnt be super dry. If you find that it is, add a splash more milk. This will make a juicy meatloaf. Can I make extra glaze? If you really like a lot of glaze, double the recipe and pour extra on top. You can even save some and serve it on the side as a sauce. Its very yummy. How do I know when the meatloaf is done and safe to eat? Always check the internal temperature with a meat thermometer, even if it looks done. It should reach 165F (74C) for safe consumption. What to serve with Chicken Meatloaf? When I made this recently, I served it with some Mashed Potatoes and steamed broccoli. But, you can serve with any of your favorite vegetables. The microwaveable steamed veggie bags are a quick option or a bagged salad. Make some Garlic Bread or Dinner Rolls for a full meal. Can I change up the glaze topping? The glaze can really be customized to whatever you like. It can even be just ketchup, or you can skip it all together it will still taste great! Or maybe go with a BBQ flare and mix a little ketchup and BBQ sauce and put that on top. How do I store leftovers? Place leftover meatloaf into an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 4 days. You can heat this up in the microwave or in the air fryer until heated through. You can also freeze leftovers in a freezer safe container for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating. INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (SEE RECIPE CARD BELOW FOR THE FULL RECIPE)ground chicken you could certainly use ground turkey as well.white onion For those that dont like onions, you can use onion powder (1-2 teaspoons) or dried minced onions (about 1-2 Tablespoons) to taste.garlic for the best garlic flavor, use fresh garlic but in a pinch, the jarred stuff will work.Italian breadcrumbs you can use regular or panko whichever you prefer or have on hand.grated Parmesan cheese I just use the stuff in the green bottle but you can freshly grate it as well.milk this creates moisture. Try to use a fuller fat milk if possible. large egg this acts as a binder to hold the meatloaf together, dont skip it!Worcestershire sauce this adds a lot of flavor. We really are trying to build up layers of flavor for this ground chicken.Dijon mustard this is an optional ingredient. The dijon mustard might sound weird but it works REALLY well with chicken but it doesnt stick out like a sore thumb with the flavor. You dont taste it as a separate ingredient. Its just one of those cant quite put your finger on it ingredients. I wouldnt substitute it for yellow mustard, I would just leave it out if you dont have it.chicken bouillon powder The chicken bouillon in the recipe is just powdered bouillon (like Knorr). You can also use the better than bouillon paste or take a bouillon cube and crush it up. Or just leave it out if necessary.ketchupbrown sugar I just use a light brown sugar. You can leave it out if you prefer.soy sauce you can use a light soy sauce if you are looking to control the salt content when you canHOW TO MAKE CHICKEN MEATLOAF:Preheat your oven to 375F.
