Ingredients:
1 1/2 pounds ground chicken
1 cup bread crumbs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup milk
1 egg
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
6-8 slices of ham
1 1/2 cups shredded Swiss cheese
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/4 cup chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
Mix Meatloaf Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, milk, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Layer the Meatloaf: Press half of the chicken mixture into the bottom of the loaf pan. Layer the ham slices on top of the chicken mixture, then sprinkle with 1 cup of shredded Swiss cheese. Spread the Dijon mustard over the cheese.
Top with Remaining Chicken Mixture: Press the remaining chicken mixture over the cheese and ham layers, sealing the edges to enclose the filling.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the meatloaf is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Add Cheese Topping: Remove the meatloaf from the oven and sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded Swiss cheese on top. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish and Serve: Allow the meatloaf to rest for a few minutes before slicing. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
