# What You'll Need:

→ Meatloaf

01 - 2 pounds ground chicken
02 - ½ cup finely diced white onion
03 - 3 cloves garlic, minced
04 - ½ cup Italian-style breadcrumbs
05 - ⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese
06 - ¼ cup whole milk
07 - 1 large egg
08 - 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
09 - 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (optional)
10 - ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
11 - 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon powder
12 - ½ teaspoon salt
13 - ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

→ Glaze

14 - ½ cup ketchup
15 - 1 tablespoon brown sugar
16 - 1 tablespoon soy sauce
17 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder
18 - 1 teaspoon onion powder
19 - 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray a 9×5 inch loaf pan with cooking spray and optionally line with parchment paper, leaving two edges overhanging for easy removal.
02 - In a large bowl, mix ground chicken, diced white onion, minced garlic, Italian breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan, milk, egg, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, parsley, chicken bouillon powder, salt, and black pepper until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
03 - Transfer mixture into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top and sides evenly. Bake uncovered for 30 minutes.
04 - While baking, whisk together ketchup, brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and Dijon mustard until uniform.
05 - Remove the meatloaf from the oven after 30 minutes. Evenly spread the glaze over the top, then return to the oven and bake for an additional 20–25 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
06 - Let the meatloaf rest for several minutes in the pan before lifting with the parchment paper. Slice and serve immediately.

# Extra Suggestions:

01 - Use a meat thermometer to ensure the meatloaf reaches an internal temperature of 165°F for safe consumption.
02 - If the mixture seems dry before baking, add a splash of milk to maintain moisture.
03 - Glaze can be doubled for extra topping or served on the side as sauce.
