Breakfast Chicken Sausage Patties
Servings 12 sausage patties
These homemade chicken sausage patties are sweet and savory, packed with protein, and a game-changer for meal prep! Combine a few simple ingredients, like ground chicken, maple syrup and a handful of spices, for the easiest little homemade sausage patties ever. Keep a batch in the fridge to simplify your busy mornings and start the day off right!
Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken breasts (or 1 pound ground chicken)
- 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon ground sage
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Pinch of red pepper flakes (or more if you prefer spicier patties)
Instructions
- Add the chicken breast to a food processor and blend until it resembles ground chicken. You can also use ground chicken if preferred.
- In a small bowl, combine the maple syrup, olive oil and spices.
- Add mixture to the ground chicken and pulse again to combine.
- Form into 12 equal sized balls and place on a large plate.
- Preheat a large frying pan over medium high heat. Spray with cooking spray or a bit of oil. Add 6 balls to the pan and press down evenly with your fingers to create thin patties. It will be sticky, so be sure to wet your fingers between each one to prevent the mixture from sticking to your fingers.
- Cook the patties for 2-3 minutes, flip, and cook for another 2-3 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F. Repeat with the remaining sausage mixture. Serve or store in the fridge or freezer for later!
Notes
- If you want the patties to be the perfect size for breakfast sandwiches, form them into thin patties with about a 3-inch diameter.
- The chicken mixture will be sticky, so it helps to wet your hands before handling the mixture and forming it into balls or patties. You may have to wet your hands several times throughout the process. I like to keep a small bowl of water by the stove or my work station so that I can dip my fingers into it when rolling the balls and flattening the patties in the pan.
