Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese divided
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs plain or Italian-seasoned
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce low-sodium recommended
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish with nonstick spray.
  2. Sauté diced onions in a skillet over medium heat until soft (about 5 minutes).
  3. In a large bowl, mix together ground chicken, sautéed onions, minced garlic, breadcrumbs, eggs, soy sauce, salt, pepper, and half of the Parmesan cheese until combined.
  4. Shape the mixture into a loaf form in the greased baking dish.
  5. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese on top. Optionally, add paprika or Italian seasoning for extra flavor.
Cooking
  1. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  2. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Notes

Make sure not to overmix the chicken mixture to keep the meatloaf tender. You can add chopped herbs like parsley or basil for extra flavor. If you like it spicy, consider adding some red pepper flakes to the mix. For a lower-carb option, substitute breadcrumbs with almond flour or crushed pork rinds, or mix in chopped vegetables like bell peppers or zucchini for added nutrition.
