Description
A delicious twist on comfort food, Chicken Cordon Bleu Meatloaf combines ground chicken, ham, and Swiss cheese for a flavorful dish.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds ground chicken
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 8 ounces ham, diced
- 8 ounces Swiss cheese, shredded
- ½ cup milk
- ¼ cup Dijon mustard
- ¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, breadcrumbs, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, mix the diced ham, shredded Swiss cheese, and chopped parsley.
- On a large sheet of parchment paper or wax paper, shape half of the chicken mixture into a rectangle about 1 inch thick. Spread the ham and cheese mixture evenly over the chicken layer, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Carefully roll the meatloaf from one long side to the other, using the parchment paper to help. Pinch the ends to seal. Place the rolled meatloaf seam-side down in a greased baking dish.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the milk and Dijon mustard. Pour this mixture over the top of the meatloaf.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Notes
- For added flavor, try using different types of cheese, such as cheddar or pepper jack.
- You can also substitute turkey for the ground chicken for a leaner option.
