Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs Ground chicken
- 0.75 cup Breadcrumbs
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 cup Buffalo wing sauce
- 2 tbsp Ranch seasoning mix
- 0.5 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 stalks Green onions (chopped)
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.25 cup Blue cheese crumbles (optional)
- 0.25 cup Additional buffalo wing sauce (for glaze)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a loaf pan with nonstick spray or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, breadcrumbs, egg, buffalo wing sauce, ranch seasoning mix, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Mix the ingredients with your hands or a spoon until just combined. Avoid overmixing as it can make the meatloaf dense.
Transfer the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan and press it down gently to shape it evenly.
Brush the top of the meatloaf with the additional buffalo wing sauce for a flavorful glaze.
Place the meatloaf in the preheated oven and bake for 50 to 55 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) when tested with a meat thermometer.
Remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Slice the meatloaf and, if desired, sprinkle with blue cheese crumbles and additional chopped green onions for garnish.
Serve warm with a side of celery sticks, carrot sticks, or a drizzle of ranch dressing.
