For the Meatloaf
1 ½ lbs ground chicken
1/2 cup breadcrumbs (or gluten-free breadcrumbs / crushed pork rinds)
1/2 cup finely chopped celery
1/4 cup chopped green onions
1 large egg
1/3 cup Buffalo hot sauce (like Frank’s RedHot)
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 cup ranch or blue cheese dressing
3/4 tsp kosher salt (or to taste)
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
For Topping (Optional but Delicious)
More ranch or blue cheese dressing
1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
Sliced green onions
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
Mix the Meatloaf
In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, breadcrumbs, celery, green onions, egg, Buffalo sauce, garlic powder, dressing, salt, and pepper.
Mix gently until just combined — avoid overmixing to keep it tender.
Shape & Bake
Transfer the mixture to your prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the center reaches 165°F (74°C).
Rest & Finish
Let the meatloaf rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Drizzle with extra dressing, sprinkle with blue cheese and green onions (if using), and serve warm.
