Buffalo Chicken Meatloaf
Buffalo chicken meatloaf is a lighter and healthier version of comfort food. It’s only 6 ingredients to make this tender and spicy high-protein dinner.
Servings: 8 slices
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs ground chicken or meat of choice
- ½ cup celery diced
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons almond flour
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons buffalo sauce low sugar
- Green onions for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Prepare a loaf pan with parchment paper.
- Heat a small skillet and add the diced celery. Sauté 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently until tender. Reduce the heat and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk the egg with the garlic powder, onion powder and paprika. Add the buffalo sauce, ground chicken, almond flour and buffalo sauce.
- Using your hands, mix the ingredients together until well incorporated. Transfer to the prepared loaf pan.
- Bake at 350 F 60 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool in the pan 15 minutes before cutting into 8 slices.
Notes
- Use a meat thermometer to monitor the temperature of the meatloaf to ensure it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and is fully cooked.
- The meatloaf must rest in the loaf pan for 15 minutes to reabsorb the juices. This results in a more tender and moist meatloaf.
- Prepare the meatloaf and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days before baking it.
