BBQ Bacon Meatloaf

Remember how I said I only like one meatloaf?  I lied.  I love this one too, but it really isn't anything like traditional meatloaf.  First it is made with ground chicken, but if you can't find ground chicken, you can used ground turkey breast instead.  Try it!

1 cup chopped red onion
4-6 slices bacon, chopped
2/3 cup old-fashioned or quick cooking oats
1/2 cup milk
1 lb. ground chicken breast
2 large egg whites, beaten
1/2 tsp. garlic salt
1 tsp. Lea & Perrins
BBQ sauce

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.  Spray a loaf pan lightly with cooking spray.  Heat a few tsp. of vegetable oil in a medium skillet over medium heat.  Add onion and bacon and cook, stirring frequently, until onion is tender and bacon is crisped.  Remove from heat.  Combine the oats and milk in a medium mixing bowl and let stand about 3 minutes or until oats begin to soften.  Add the onion and bacon, the chicken, egg whites, garlic salt, and Lea & Perrins.  With a fork or clean hands, mix together until very well combined.  Put the chicken mixture into the prepared loaf pan and spread so the top is flat.  Spread some BBQ sauce evenly over the top.  Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until 165 degrees in center.  Let loaf sit for 10 minutes before serving.  Serve with more BBQ sauce for dipping!
