Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds ground chicken
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 large egg
- 1 medium, finely chopped onion
- 1 stalk, finely chopped celery
- 1 medium, peeled and grated carrot
- 3 cloves, minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup tomato paste
- 2 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 1 tablespoon ghee
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a loaf pan with ghee to prevent sticking.
In a small skillet, heat the ghee over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, celery, and garlic, and sauté until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer the sautéed vegetables to a large mixing bowl and allow them to cool slightly.
In the same mixing bowl, add ground chicken, almond flour, egg, grated carrot, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Using your hands or a large spoon, mix the ingredients until well combined but do not overwork the meat.
Transfer the chicken mixture to the prepared loaf pan, pressing down gently to shape it evenly.
In a small bowl, whisk together the tomato paste and coconut aminos. Spread this glaze evenly over the top of the meatloaf.
Place the meatloaf in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the top is slightly caramelized.
Remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy your wholesome Whole30 chicken meatloaf.
