Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
Prepare the Meatloaf Mixture:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, diced onion, pressed garlic, bread crumbs, egg, minced parsley, and grated Parmesan cheese.
Season the mixture with salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste.
Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until well combined.
Form the Meatloaves:
Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape them into small individual meatloaves. This recipe should make several mini meatloaves, perfect for individual servings.
Place the formed meatloaves on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake:
Bake the meatloaves in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until they are cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Optional Topping:
If you like, sprinkle extra fresh grated Parmesan cheese on top of each meatloaf during the last 5 minutes of baking. This will add a delicious cheesy crust.
Serve:
Once baked, remove the meatloaves from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, keeping the meatloaves moist.
Serve warm, garnished with additional fresh parsley if desired.
