Ingredients
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 0.5 cup almond flour
- 0.5 cup onion, finely chopped
- 1 medium carrot, grated
- 1 celery stalk, finely chopped
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
In a small skillet over medium heat, warm the coconut oil and sauté the onion, carrot, celery, and garlic until they are soft, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, almond flour, cooked vegetables, egg, tomato paste, oregano, thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Mix the ingredients together until well combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this will make the meatloaf dense.
Step 5
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease a loaf pan.
Step 6
Shape the chicken mixture into a loaf on the parchment paper or press it into the loaf pan.
Step 7
Place the meatloaf in the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the top is golden brown.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Step 9
Serve warm, and enjoy your Paleo Chicken Meatloaf with your favorite Paleo side dishes.
