1
Pre-heat oven to 350u00b0 degrees F.
2
NOTE: I like to grill the corn for a bit of a charred taste, but you can cook it however you desire. Or you can use corn from the can.
3
Heat medium pot, add about 1 tablespoons oil. Once oil is heated add onions, jalapeno, & green pepper. Cook until semi-soft, about 5-8 minutes. Add garlic and cook about another minute. Remove from pan and set aside.
4
In same pan cook chorizo as directed on package, usually about 10-12 minutes, add tomato paste. Remove from heat and drain if needed. Let cool so it can be added with ground chicken without cooking it in bowl.
5
In large bowl combine bread crumbs & spices, mix well. Add ground chicken & eggs, mix well. Add cooled vegies, including corn and beans. Add chorizo and mix well. Form into meatloaf.
6
Place in lightly greased loaf pan and bake covered with foil for 1 hour.
7
You can check internal temperature for 160u00b0 since you are using chicken, let rest for 5-10 minutes for temperature to reach 165u00b0 and then serve.
8
NOTE: You can serve this with salsa for an extra kick in flavor.
