Categories     main-dish

Time 1h40m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon hot sauce
Nonstick cooking spray, for spraying the loaf pan
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 stalks celery, small diced (about 1 cup), celery leaves reserved for garnish
1/2 medium onion, small diced (about 1 cup)
3 tablespoons hot sauce
1 1/2 pounds ground chicken, 50/50 light and dark
1 cup blue cheese crumbles
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons coarsely ground black pepper
2 large eggs
2 1/4 cups panko breadcrumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • For the sauce: Whisk together the ketchup and hot sauce in a small bowl and set aside.
  • For the meatloaf: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan with cooking spray and set aside.
  • Melt the butter in a medium saute pan over medium-high heat. Once melted, saute the celery and onion until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer the mixture, with the drippings, to a large bowl. Add the hot sauce to the bowl and stir to combine. Add the chicken, blue cheese, salt, pepper, eggs and 1 1/2 cups of the panko and mix until well combined.
  • Press the mixture into the prepared loaf pan, pressing more in the center of the loaf to create a divot. This will allow the meatloaf to bake evenly and not create a mound after it is baked. Spread the sauce over the top of the meatloaf. Mix the Parmesan with 1/2 cup of the panko and sprinkle the mixture on top of the sauce. Bake until the center is set and the top is golden brown, 45 minutes to an hour. Let rest about 15 minutes before cutting to serve.
  • Meanwhile, toast the remaining 1/4 cup panko in a dry pan until lightly golden and set aside.
  • Garnish the meatloaf slices with the toasted panko and chopped celery leaves.

Tips:

  • Use a flavorful ground beef blend: A combination of 80% lean and 20% fat ground beef provides the best flavor and texture for meatloaf. You can also use ground turkey or chicken, but adjust the cooking time accordingly.
  • Add moisture to the meatloaf: To prevent the meatloaf from becoming dry, add moisture-rich ingredients such as eggs, breadcrumbs, and milk. You can also add grated vegetables, such as carrots, zucchini, or onions, to add flavor and moisture.
  • Season the meatloaf well: Use a variety of spices and herbs to season the meatloaf, such as garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. You can also add a touch of heat with cayenne pepper or chili powder.
  • Cook the meatloaf to the correct temperature: The internal temperature of the meatloaf should reach 160°F (71°C) for medium-rare, 165°F (74°C) for medium, or 170°F (77°C) for well-done. Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the meatloaf is cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Let the meatloaf rest before slicing: Once the meatloaf is cooked, let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meatloaf, resulting in a more flavorful and moist slice.
