This recipe is courtesy of The Dedicated, originally courtesy of PaleOMG - both awesome sites. The chicken meatloaf turned out to be delicious - especially if you like spicy! It's the Frank's RedHot. You really can put that sh*t on everything!
The recipe is idiot-proof (as I am an idiot, and it came out okay). The leftovers were even better. And as the aforementioned websites mentioned, it is super filling. Like, more than you would expect - a small slice or two will do you.
Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground chicken
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup almond meal/flour
- 2 celery stalks
- 1/2 onion
- 3-4 tbsp Frank's RedHot sauce
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper
- salt and pepper
- Chop celery and onion
- Mash everything together with your hands. If this turns you on a little, you're not alone.
- Scoop the mix into a loaf pan of some sort.
- Bake uncovered at 350 for 50 minutes.
It occurred to me that you could add some kind of cheese to this - cheddar or hey, even blue cheese to keep with the buffalo vibe. Speaking of buffalo sauce, can we talk about Frank's RedHot?! Okay, I admit it's probably not the most Organo of ingreds...but it definitely could be a lot worse. It packs a ton of flavor, and did you know it has ZERO calories?
One more comment on ingredients: what is almond flour made of....angel tears?? One bag of it cost like fourteen dollars. Seriously?! This must be the paleo alternative to flour, which I get, but fourteen bucks is just redonk. That said, I did buy it and vow to search for other uses. And what do you know, I used it another night to bread chicken tenders for my lightened up chicken parm.
Final product: extremely moist, spicy, crunchy chicken meatloaf that left us totally satisfied with a small side salad. I paired mine with chardonnay, but honestly this would have been better with a frosty cold brew.
Give it a whirl, and let us know how it goes!
