Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a loaf pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, breadcrumbs, eggs, milk, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Dijon mustard. Mix until well combined.
On a piece of parchment or plastic wrap, flatten the chicken mixture into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick.
Layer the chopped ham and Swiss cheese evenly over the surface of the meat mixture.
Carefully roll the mixture into a loaf, jelly-roll style, using the parchment or plastic wrap to help lift and shape.
Transfer the loaf to the prepared pan and bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with parsley if desired.

Notes

You can substitute turkey for chicken if desired.
Use low-fat cheese and ham to reduce calories.
Pairs well with mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables.
