Ingredients
Meatloaf
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- ½ cup milk
- 1 large egg
- ½ cup finely diced onion
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ¼ cup ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon paprika
Classic Meatloaf Glaze
- ⅓ cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F and prepare a loaf pan by lightly greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and milk and let them soak for about one minute until softened.
- Add the ground chicken, egg, onion, garlic, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and paprika to the bowl.
- Gently mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the mixture.
- Press the chicken mixture evenly into the prepared loaf pan.
- In a small bowl, stir together the ketchup and brown sugar until smooth, then spread evenly over the top of the meatloaf.
- Bake uncovered for 40–45 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- Let the meatloaf rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Cook your chicken meatloaf until it reaches 165°F. Check it for doneness with a thermometer in the thickest part for safety.
- Avoid overworking the meatloaf mixture when combining the ingredients, so it doesn’t become tough or dense.
