1 lb lean ground chicken

3 cloves fresh garlic, minced

-
1 small onion, finely chopped

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a loaf pan by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it.

Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add ground chicken, minced garlic, grated Parmesan, breadcrumbs, eggs, chopped onion, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until fully combined.

Shape the Meatloaf: Transfer the mixture into the loaf pan. Use a spatula to smooth the surface and shape it into a loaf.
-
Add Topping: Evenly spread ketchup over the top of the meatloaf. This adds moisture and a tangy glaze while baking.

Bake: Place the loaf pan in the oven and bake for 45–50 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the meatloaf is cooked through.
