Appetizing Chicken and Apple Breakfast Sausage Patties
Gretel Shaw
I believe, sausage patties are one of the most filling breakfast one can ever have. With that in mind, I decided to make this go-to recipe for chicken and apple breakfast sausage patties.
Mix together all ingredients except olive oil in a large bowl. Your hands are your best tool–so be ready to get messy! Once the sausage mixture is thoroughly combined, you’ll want to get your heat going.
I’ve cooked these on a countertop grill and a stovetop grill pan. Either way, you’ll want to oil your grill or pan and start the heat. If cooking on a George, plug it in. If on the stovetop, start with medium heat; you can later turn the heat up to medium-high if you feel like the patties are cooking too slowly and getting tough on the outside.
Next, get a large plate or platter ready. Form patties from the sausage mixture about 2 inches wide and 1/2 inch thick, and place on a plate or platter until all patties are formed and ready to cook. Once patties are formed, place several on your George or stovetop grill pan and cook for about 8 minutes, flipping 1/2 way through if cooking on the stovetop. Ground chicken should be cooked to at least 165 degrees, so check for doneness before removing each batch and starting the next.
I get about 36 two-inch patties from this recipe. This quickly gives me breakfast for a week! You could also make these larger to fit on sourdough toast, an English muffin, or a gluten-free Butternut Squash Biscuit (recipe coming soon!)–top with a scrambled, fried or poached egg, and you have a delicious, easy-to-take-on-the-go breakfast sandwich, packed with protein and nutrients.
