Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking dish.
In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, minced garlic, parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, eggs, onion, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined.
Shape the mixture into a loaf in the prepared baking dish.
Spread ketchup on top of the meatloaf for added moisture and flavor.
Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
Let the meatloaf rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

You can swap ground chicken with ground turkey if desired.

Feel free to add fresh or dried herbs like oregano, thyme, or basil to the meatloaf mixture for extra flavor.

If you like a spicy kick, try adding red pepper flakes or hot sauce to the mixture.

For a vegetarian option, substitute ground chicken with a plant-based ground meat alternative.

Cheese options: Try using mozzarella or cheddar instead of parmesan for a different flavor.
