In a medium bowl, whisk together ½ cup of milk and 1 large egg until well combined. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of panko bread crumbs, ½ cup of grated Parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon of dried Italian seasoning, and salt and pepper.

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a small pan over medium heat. Add 3 cloves of minced garlic and sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.

Stir the sautéed garlic into the egg mixture along with ¼ cup of chopped fresh parsley.

Gently fold in 1 pound of ground chicken into the mixture.

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Lightly grease a loaf pan with cooking spray or olive oil.

Transfer the meat mixture into the prepared loaf pan and shape it evenly.

In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of melted butter and ½ teaspoon of garlic powder. Brush over the meatloaf.

Bake the meatloaf in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Let the meatloaf rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.

Slice the meatloaf and serve warm with your favorite sides.
