Instructions to Make Recipe For Chicken Meatloaf

Step 1

Before starting baking warm up the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking pan with a foil then spray it with cooking oil.

Step 2

Take a small pan put some butter warm it up then add onions and cook them till they are tender then put the pan aside and let it cool completely.

Step 3

Get another medium bowl and add breadcrumbs, eggs, and milk in it then combine it well and set it aside for about 10 minutes.

Step 4

Now add the following in a bowl and mix them well to combine:

  • Ground Beef
  • Cooked Onions
  • Ketchup
  • Chili Sauce
  • Italian Seasoning
  • Parsley
  • Salt
  • Pepper

Step 5

Make an 8 x 4-inches loaf on the baking pan bake for about 40 minutes and proceed to the next step while the meatloaf is baking.

Step 6

Take chili sauce and ketchup and combine them well then spread the mixture on the meatloaf and again bake for about 15 minutes or till you think the dish is ready or when the internal temperature of the dish reaches 160 degrees F at this point you can broil it for 2 minutes if you desire.

Step 7

After baking let it rest for 8-10 minutes then make its slices and serve to enjoy.

Chicken Meatloaf Sauce

In the meatloaf sauce, I use a mixture of ketchup, chili sauce, and a pinch of brown sugar that you can skip if you don’t like or don’t want to use in this recipe I tell you that my favorite topping for meatloaf is zesty topping that gets a bit sticky and caramelizes to glaze the dish as it bakes.

Tips for the Best Meatloaf

  • Avoid overmixing which can result in a dense chicken meatloaf therefore mix the ingredients in a bowl and combine them well.
  • You can use 80/20 lean beef but ensure that it is not extra lean which will provide you with the best consistency and flavor without extra fat.
  • Add seasonings and soaking breadcrumbs in the milk to keep your dish flavorful and moist.
  • You can use a baking sheet to make this recipe while a loaf pan can cause the dish to steam instead of getting a crispy exterior.
  • When you take out the meatloaf from the oven allow it to rest to adjust all the juices which will also help to make slices easily.
