Chicken Apple Sage Sausage Recipes

CHICKEN APPLE AND SAGE SAUSAGE PATTIES

Steps:

• MIX together all the ingredients, carefully to not overmix.
• CREATE approximately 16 (2) ounce patties (flattened for even cooking)
• FRY patties in cooking oil over medium heat. Take care to cover your skillet during the process to ensure they cook through. The amount of oil will vary depending on the fat content of the meat and seasoning on your skillet.
• COOK through, checking with a thermometer until the internal temperature reaches 165

CHICKEN SAUSAGE PATTIES WITH APPLE AND SAGE

Steps:

• Prepare grill for cooking.
• Stir together all ingredients in a large bowl until combined well.
• Form rounded 3/4 cups of sausage mixture into 2-inch-diameter patties using moistened hands. When fire is medium-hot (you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack 3 to 4 seconds), grill patties on lightly oiled grill rack, turning once, until cooked through, about 6 minutes.

CHICKEN AND APPLE SAUSAGE

Steps:

• In a small nonreactive saucepan, boil down the cider almost to a syrup, about 2 to 3 tablespoons. Cool and reserve.
• If using chicken thighs, coarsely grind the boned chicken and skin or chop coarsely in batches in a food processor. Add the apple cider and the remaining ingredients to the ground chicken in a large bowl or plastic tub and blend thoroughly with your hands. Fry a small patty until done and taste for salt, pepper, and other seasonings.
• Divide sausage into 7 or 8 portions (each about 1/2 pound), wrap tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil, and refrigerate or freeze for later use. Or, if desired, stuff the sausage into casings.

CHICKEN SAUSAGE WITH APPLES, SAGE AND CABBAGE

Steps:

• Sear the sausages in the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the internal temperature is 150 degrees F, about 5 minutes per side. Remove the sausages from the skillet and set aside. Return the skillet to medium-low heat and add more oil if the pan is dry. Add the onions and salt to taste and cook the onions until translucent and just beginning to brown, about 5 minutes.
• Deglaze the skillet with the vinegar, scraping the bottom to get all the brown bits (fond), which equals flavor. Add the cabbage and apples and stir to combine. Let it cook down a bit, stirring occasionally, about 4 minutes. Season with salt and sugar and cook until the cabbage and apples start to soften, another 5 minutes. Return the sausages and any juices that have collected to the skillet. Cover and cook to heat through. Sprinkle in some sage and cook until the internal temperature of the sausages is 165 degrees F, about 5 minutes more. Garnish with additional sage. Adjust the salt if needed, then serve with crusty bread.

SAGE, SAUSAGE AND APPLE DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Put the stuffing cubes in a large bowl and set aside. Butter a 3-quart casserole dish.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and break it up with a wooden spoon. Cook until it loses most of its pink color, but not so much that it's dry, about 5 minutes. Add the sausage and pan drippings to the stuffing cubes. Melt the remaining butter in the pan. Add the onion, apple, celery, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook until the vegetables get soft, about 5 minutes. Add the broth and parsley and bring to a boil.
• Pour the vegetable mixture over the stuffing cubes and toss until evenly moistened. Mix in the walnuts and eggs. Loosely pack the dressing in the prepared pan and cook uncovered until the top forms a crust, about 40 minutes. Drizzle about 2 tablespoons of turkey pan drippings or melted butter over the top. Cook until the top is crisp and golden, about 20 minutes more.

CHICKEN APPLE BREAKFAST SAUSAGE

Steps:

• In a large, heavy skillet heat 2 Tbs of olive oil over medium-high heat.
• Add the onions and apples.
• Cook, stirring for 3-4 min or until onions have softened.
• Add the garlic and cook for 30 sec to 1 minute.
• Remove from the heat and cool.
• In a large bowl combine the chicken, pork, thyme, sage, salt and pepper.
• Add the cooled onion mixture and mix well.
• At this point take a small piece of the mixture and cook in a skillet with a little vegetable oil, taste to test the salt and seasoning - add more is necessary.
• On a plastic-covered surface, form the mixture into 8 good sized patties or 16 smaller patties.
• Heat 2 Tbs of vegetabel oil in a 12-inch skillet over high heat.
• Add 4 patties (or more if smaller) to the pan and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 min per side.
• Place cooked patties in a warm oven while you cook the rest of the patties.
• Add more oil if necessary and continue cooking patties in the same manner.

CHICKEN SAUSAGE FROM SCRATCH

Steps:

• 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.
• Place chicken thighs in a food processor; pulse until coarsely chopped. Process until ground. Transfer to a bowl. Fold in apple mixture.
• Scoop 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture with a large melon baller and form into a patty. Repeat with remaining chicken mixture.
• 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.
