directions
    For the meatloaf:
  1. Combine the ground chicken, zucchini, onion, garlic, eggs, breadcrumbs, parmesan, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, parsley, salt, and pepper, and shape it into a 9×18 inch rectangle on wax paper.
  2. Layer the ham and swiss cheese over the chicken mixture, then roll it up into a log shape and transfer it to a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
  3. In a bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs, melted butter, garlic powder, and parsley, then sprinkle it over the meatloaf in the pan.
  4. Bake in a preheated 350F/180C oven until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165F, roughly 60 minutes. (Cover with foil for the first 40 minutes, then remove to allow the breadcrumbs to brown.)
  5. Allow the meatloaf to rest for 15 minutes, then slice and serve topped with the dijon mustard sauce!
  6. For the dijon sauce:
  7. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter until it begins to froth.
