Ingredients
Method
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Whisk wet ingredients and spices.
- Fold in chicken, crumbs, and cheese.
- Shape into loaf.
- Bake 35-40 mins until 165°F.
- Rest 10 mins.
Notes
- Moisture Tip: Always use a meat thermometer to pull the loaf at 165°F; chicken dries out quickly if overcooked even by 5 degrees.
- Meal Prep: Slice the loaf after it has cooled completely for clean, perfect cuts that won't crumble.
- Breadcrumb Hack: If the mixture feels too wet to shape into a loaf, let it sit for 5 minutes to allow the breadcrumbs to fully hydrate before adding more.
