Ingredients
– 1 pound ground chicken
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, minced
– 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, minced
– 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, minced
– 1 teaspoon salt
– ½ teaspoon black pepper
– 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
– 1 teaspoon fennel seeds (optional)
– Sausage casings (optional, if making links)
Instructions
Creating your own Tuscan Chicken Sausages is straightforward with these simple steps:
1. Prep Your Workspace: Gather all your ingredients and tools. If using casings, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes.
2. Mix the Chicken and Spices: In a large bowl, combine ground chicken with garlic, rosemary, thyme, parsley, salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and fennel seeds. Mix until well combined.
3. Taste Test: Cook a small patty of the mixture in a skillet over medium heat for about 3 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
4. Stuff Sausages (optional): If making links, use a sausage stuffer to fill the casings with the chicken mixture. Twist sausages at desired lengths and tie off ends.
5. Cook the Sausages: Preheat your grill or skillet over medium heat. Cook sausages for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
6. Rest the Sausages: Allow sausages to rest for a few minutes before slicing or serving. This helps retain their juices.
These steps will guide you toward creating flavorful and juicy Tuscan Chicken Sausages that everyone will enjoy.
