Chicken Meatloaf Squares

My kids like meatballs but I was too lazy to roll them so I found another recipe to try for chicken meatloaf. I adapted the recipe to use what I had. Instead of a red pepper I used yellow, I only had 6 mushrooms left so that's what I used. I also used a mini food processor to chop the vegetables. It's just faster than using a knife and gets the veggies really small.

I saw a post on Pinterest about putting ground meat into a large bag and dividing it into squares. So I placed my meat mixture onto the baking sheet and used a wooden spatula to divide it into squares before cooking. The squares came apart really easily once they were cooked. And this recipe is delicious by the way!

I was taking pictures with my phone again. Not bad, but could be better.

Here they are all cooked.

Makes 4 servings

Ingredients
1 egg
1/2 cup Panko
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 cup shredded cheese (I used Tex Mex blend)
1 tablespoon of tomato paste
1/2 medium onion, minced
1 clove of garlic, minced
1/2 yellow bell pepper, minced
6 medium sized button mushrooms, minced
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1lb extra lean ground chicken

Directions
Preheat the oven to 425F.

Mix all ingredients in a large bowl, except for the chicken. Once combined, you can mix in the chicken.

Press the mixture onto a foil lined baking sheet. I flattened mine to about 1/2". Try to get it even.

Use a flat object to make indents into the mixture, creating little squares (or big ones if you want).

Bake for 20 minutes or until golden and cooked through.
