Buffalo Chicken Meatloaf is a delicious take on the classic meatloaf, featuring the dominant flavor of Buffalo chicken wings. It's a delicious combination of hot sauce, butter, celery, and blue cheese. To prevent the tender ground chicken from becoming dry, it's important to use both white and dark meat. Serve the meatloaf with mashed potatoes or vegetables. A juicy green salad can be added for a cooling contrast.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a 9 x 5 x 3 inch baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
Sauce:

Combine ketchup and hot sauce in a small bowl and set aside.

Meatloaf:

Melt the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once melted, sauté the celery and onion until softened, 3–5 minutes. Transfer the contents of the skillet (including the fat) to a large bowl. Stir in the hot sauce. Add the chicken, blue cheese, salt, pepper, eggs, and 1.5 cups of breadcrumbs and mix well.

Spoon the mixture into the prepared loaf pan, pressing down firmly, especially in the center, to create an indentation. This will prevent the meatloaf from puffing up during baking. Brush the surface with the sauce. Combine the Parmesan cheese with 1/2 cup of breadcrumbs and sprinkle the mixture over the meatloaf. Bake until the center is set and the top is golden brown, 45 minutes to an hour. Let rest for about 15 minutes, then slice and serve.
Meanwhile, toast the remaining 1/4 cup breadcrumbs in a dry frying pan until lightly golden brown and set aside. Garnish the meatloaf slices with the toasted breadcrumbs and chopped celery leaves.
