Chicken sausage recipes are not commonly found on the web. I had some chicken thighs and was looking for something versatile to do with them.
Ingredients
- 1 apple, chopped
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon ground sage
- 1 teaspoon celery seed
- 1 teaspoon anise seed
- 1 teaspoon ground marjoram
- ½ teaspoon ground allspice
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken thighs
Directions
Step 1
Combine apple, onion, garlic, tomato paste, sage, celery seed, anise seed, marjoram, allspice, salt, and pepper in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir until softened and fragrant, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool for 10 minutes.
Step 2
Place chicken thighs in a food processor; pulse until coarsely chopped. Process until ground. Transfer to a bowl. Fold in apple mixture.
Step 3
Scoop 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture with a large melon baller and form into a patty. Repeat with remaining chicken mixture.
Step 4
Preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook 4 patties until browned and no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer to a plate; wipe out skillet. Repeat with remaining patties.
Cook’s Note:
Chicken thighs are important because of the fat content. Breast meat does not impart enough fat.
