In this recipe, we will be creating homemade chicken sausage patties infused with the aromatic flavors of fennel and chives. These patties are not only delicious but also a healthier alternative to store-bought options, as they are made with lean chicken thighs and a mix of natural herbs and spices.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Heat the flaxseed oil and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the finely chopped onion to the skillet and sauté until it becomes translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and fennel seeds, cooking for another 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Season with a dash of salt and black pepper. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the finely chopped or ground chicken thighs with the cooked onion mixture.
- Add the vinegar, finely chopped chives, paprika, sugar, and ground nutmeg to the bowl. Mix everything thoroughly until well combined.
- Form the mixture into small, even-sized patties, about 2-3 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick. You should get around 8-10 patties depending on the size.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium heat. If needed, you can lightly grease the pan with a bit of olive oil.
- Place the chicken patties in the skillet. Cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side or until the patties are browned and fully cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C).
- Serve the homemade chicken sausage patties hot. They make a perfect addition to breakfast plates, sandwiches, or salads.
Tips:
- Ensure that the chicken thighs are well-chilled before grinding as it helps achieve a better texture for the sausage patties.
- Toast the fennel seeds before adding them to the mixture to enhance their flavor.
- If you don’t have a meat grinder, you can use a food processor to mince the chicken thighs.
- Let the patties rest for 10 minutes before cooking to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Cook the patties over medium heat to ensure they are cooked through without burning the outside.
Congratulations! You've just crafted delicious homemade chicken sausage patties with fennel and chives. They are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Serve them hot and enjoy the rich, savory flavors that are sure to impress your family and friends.
