Low-Fat Chicken Meatloaf

Forget greasy beef meatloaf. This lighter version uses ground chicken mixed with oats and applesauce to keep it moist without the fat.

Poultry seasoning brings that classic herb blend while a full tablespoon of salt ensures the chicken doesn’t taste bland.

The oats soak up moisture and bind everything together, creating a texture that slices clean instead of falling apart. One hour in the oven and you’ve got a healthier weeknight dinner that doesn’t taste like diet food.

Kitchen Tips

• Don’t overmix the chicken or it’ll turn tough and rubbery
• Shape into a loaf on a baking sheet instead of a loaf pan so excess moisture can evaporate
• Let it rest 10 minutes after baking for cleaner slices
• Brush with BBQ sauce or ketchup in the last 15 minutes for a glazed top
• Doubles easily for meal prep, slices reheat well
