Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. In a skillet, heat a drizzle of olive oil and sauté diced onion for about 5 minutes until soft.
  3. In a large bowl, mix together ground chicken, sautéed onions, minced garlic, breadcrumbs, eggs, soy sauce, salt, and pepper, then half of the grated Parmesan.
  4. Transfer the mixture to the baking dish, shaping it into a loaf with a smooth top.
  5. Sprinkle the remaining grated Parmesan on top, adding paprika or Italian seasoning if desired.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 45–50 minutes, using a meat thermometer to check for 165°F (74°C) doneness.
  7. Let the meatloaf rest for about 10 minutes before slicing to allow juices to redistribute.
