Chicken Meatloaf Wellington

Recipe Description

Chicken Meatloaf Wellington is a fresh take on both meatloaf and classic staple Wellington. If you are on the hunt for a new weekend recipe, look no further than this one! Whether you are a meat-lover or not, you will love this scrumptious and comforting recipe. This elegant yet easy main dish serves five persons on a budget.

For the filling, I use ground chicken, grated onion to add extra moisture, panko bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, fresh basil, and sun-dried tomatoes. Hints of basil really bring out the brightness of this savory dish. And the sun-dried tomatoes add a smoky, rich flavor. Finally, all the goodness is wrapped up in a thin layer of flaky puff pastry and baked to perfection. Enjoy!

To make Chicken Meatloaf Wellington, you will need the following ingredients:
