How To Make It

Method

1. 1. Prepare the Meatloaf Mixture

2. 01

   In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, breadcrumbs, egg, milk, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, thyme, and mustard powder. Mix until well combined but not overworked.

3. 2. Assemble the Meatloaf

4. 02

   Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

5. 03

   On a clean surface, lay down a sheet of plastic wrap. Place the chicken mixture on the plastic and press into a large rectangle about 1/2-inch thick.

6. 04

   Arrange the ham slices over the chicken mixture, then top with Swiss cheese slices, leaving a margin around the edges for sealing.

7. 05

   Starting from one end, roll the meatloaf tightly using the plastic wrap as a guide. Seal the edges and ends securely.

8. 06

   Transfer the meatloaf, seam side down, to a prepared baking dish.

9. 3. Cook the Meatloaf

10. 07

    Mix the melted butter with toasted breadcrumbs. Sprinkle this mixture over the top of the meatloaf.

11. 08

    Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 45-55 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

12. 4. Prepare the Sauce

13. 09

    While the meatloaf cooks, prepare the sauce. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine chicken broth, heavy cream, and Dijon mustard. Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat, and let it thicken slightly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

14. 5. Serve

15. 10

    Once the meatloaf is cooked, remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes.

16. 11

    Slice the meatloaf and serve with the creamy mustard sauce poured over the top.

17. 12

    Garnish with chopped parsley and additional toasted breadcrumbs if desired. Great served with a green veggie like broccoli or green beans and a baked potato if your macros allow.
