This easy comfort food with a twist is going to be a fast family favorite. I love honey mustard, especially with chicken, so I knew this idea was going to be a hit.

The chicken is tender and packed with a double dose of honey mustard flavor in the meatloaf mix and the glaze.

Ingredients for Honey Mustard Chicken Meatloaf

  • Ground chicken
  • Ritz crackers: I love using Ritz crackers in place of breadcrumbs in recipes. They add a delicious buttery flavor to the meatloaf. If you don’t have Ritz, you can sub in other cracker crumbs or breadcrumbs.
  • Honey
  • Yellow mustard
  • Kosher salt and pepper
  • Egg

How to Make Honey Mustard Chicken Meatloaf

The prep for this dish is standard meatloaf procedure. Mix the cracker crumbs, mustard, honey, egg, salt and pepper in a large bowl.

Crumble the ground chicken into the bowl and mix until well combined. I like to use my hands, it’s the easiest way.

Press the meatloaf into a loaf pan and then comes the honey mustard glaze. Mix more mustard and honey in a clean bowl then brush over the meatloaf.

Bake and it’s ready to serve.

Weeknight Friendly

This is a perfect weeknight option for a few reasons. First, you only need 5 ingredients (not counting the salt and pepper). That is always key to an easy recipe.

Second, this chicken meatloaf only takes 30 minutes to cook. Compared to traditional meatloaf this is a quick cook time and makes it perfect for a busy weeknight.

You could even mix up and form the meatloaf the night before or morning of then keep it in the fridge until you’re ready to bake it.
