Ingredients
  

1 lb ground chicken

1/2 cup breadcrumbs (preferably Italian-style)

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 small onion, finely chopped

1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

1 large egg

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/4 cup milk

1/2 cup marinara sauce (for serving)

Extra grated Parmesan for topping

Instructions
 

Preheat Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease a loaf pan lightly.

    Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, chopped onion, parsley, egg, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper. Add milk to the mixture to keep the meatloaf moist.

      Combine Thoroughly: Use your hands or a spatula to mix the ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix, as this can lead to a dense texture.

        Shape the Meatloaves: Divide the mixture into 4 equal parts. Shape each portion into a compact loaf and place them on the prepared baking sheet (or arrange in the loaf pan).

          Add Toppings: Sprinkle extra grated Parmesan on top of each meatloaf for extra flavor and crispiness.

            Bake: Place the meatloaves in the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the tops are golden brown.

              Serve: Remove from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve hot with marinara sauce drizzled over the top or on the side for dipping.

                Enjoy: Pair your Garlic Parmesan Chicken Meatloaves with a side salad or steamed veggies for a complete meal!
