Asian Style Chicken Meatloaf !   –   Tastes like the inside of a chicken potsticker!  A whole new twist on a classic recipe!

Chicken Meat Loaf on a platter

If you like potstickers you are going to love this meatloaf!  All the yummy asian flavors of the inside of a chicken potsticker, without the wrapper!  The kicker is the chopped water chestnuts that add a fabulous crunch!

I kept the ingredients simple for this

Asian Style Chicken Meatloaf

No need to run to the store to get a plethora of asian ingredients you are only going to need once.

The glaze is a mixture of ketchup, bbq, soy sauce and few other things you probably have in your cupboard.  Keeping it easy for ya!

And let me tell ya, if you think taking pictures of meatloaf is easy…then you have never taken pictures of meatloaf!

This recipe was one of the first half dozen or so recipes I published on my blog back in the stone age.  My family actually ate most of it before I remembered to take some photos.  Such a newbie! But I had no idea anybody but my Mom would be looking at this site.  Things have changed quite a bit!   Here is a snippet of the picture…I know, I know, I know…ugh.  It’s amazing anyone ever came back after viewing this lovely little meat nugget…

Enjoyed that walk down memory lane…not.  The only thing that gives me comfort is to know  that this is a super flavorful recipe, especially when you are tired of regular old meatloaf!

To meat nuggets…sorry, not sorry!

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground chicken I used 93/7% fat
  • 1 pound ground chicken sausage we prefer chicken but pork is fine too
  • 1/2 cup panko crumbs
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, fresh grated or 1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
  • 3 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce prefer low sodium
  • 1/2 cup onion, chopped I used the whites of green onions and saved the tops for garnish
  • 1/2 cup water chestnuts, chopped 8 oz can, drained
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper

For Glaze

  • 1/3 cup barbecue sauce
  • 1/3 cup ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated or 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Spray a 8 x 4 inch loaf pan with non stick spray.
  • Combine all meatloaf ingredients in a large bowl. (excluding glaze ingredients).   Your hands are your best tools for this!
  • Add to prepared loaf pan.
  • Combine your glaze ingredients in a small bowl  Pour over uncooked meatloaf and spread evenly.
  • Bake at 400 degrees for about 50 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
  • Let cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan.
  • Serve with white rice and steamed broccoli if desired!

Notes

We prefer to use ground chicken or turkey 93/7 or 95/5 fat content.   The all white ground chicken or turkey is a bit dry.
Serve with a simple side of steamed veggies like broccoli or these delicious Honey Glazed Carrots!

    We made this meatloaf tonight for dinner and it was excellent. We couldn’t find chicken sausage so just used Italian Mild pork sausage and I thought it worked just fine. I’m also really glad we used fresh ginger, because it was nice to taste the little extra bites of flavor while eating the meatloaf and the sauce. For sides I made a brown rice and a garlic roasted bok choy. I have already sent the recipe to my family! Thanks so much for sharing!

      Glad to hear the pork sausage worked because that’s what I had to pick up with the chicken.

    I made this for my family and they loved it! It really does taste like a pot sticker! I will absolutely make this again. I used sweet Italian chicken sausage from Whole Foods, and Hoisin sauce instead of BBQ sauce in the glaze (because I hate BBQ sauce, and I wanted it to be more authentic to the cuisine). The only thing I will do differently next time is to omit the salt–because it would presumably be salty enough with just soy sauce, even with using low-sodium (which I did) .

      So glad you liked it! It’s one of those recipes thats always in our weeknight rotation. I’m thinking subbing hoisin for the bbq is the salt culprit but love the addition of it for a more authentic asian flavor. Thank you for your note!

    Did you use Italian sausage or chicken italian sausage when you made this? I am excited to try it but want to be sure I understood that second ingredient in the recipe. Thanks.

      I used chicken sausage but pork will work too! We really like a lower fat version so it doesn’t cook in all the grease.

    Hi there! I’m a pretty picky cook and I followed your recipe almost exactly. I didn’t have green onions so I just used the regular yellow ones, added finely chopped cilantro stems and some chilli powder. It was gorgeous!! Thank u for an amazing recipe!

    It’s nice that you are re-sharing this recipe. I mean as food bloggers we evolve and at that time, as a beginnger, it was difficult to show how tasty a dish is. At least that’s how I feel. 🙂 Right now I am craving your meatloaf and I love all the ingredients involved!

    An Asian twist on meatloaf? That’s really a unique meal! I’m not big on meatloaves in general, but I know a lot of people are! Great idea!
