Breakfast Sausages
Griddler
Position: Closed or Flat
Selector: Griddle
Plates: Griddle
Makes 10 sausage patties (about 1
3
4 ounces each)
12 ounces ground turkey (can use very lean)
4 ounces lean ground pork
1/3 cup very finely chopped tart apple
1 tablespoon very finely minced onion
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (1 tablespoon dried parsley)
1 teaspoon rubbed sage
1/2 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon paprika
Place all ingredients in a medium bowl and mix as for meatloaf – mixing
thoroughly to distribute the seasonings evenly. Unlike ground meat for burgers,
which should not be overmixed, it is important to completely mix the meat and
seasonings. Shape into ten patties of equal size (about 1
3
4 ounces each, 1
1
2 to 2
inches in diameter). This may be done the night before, or sausage may be made
ahead and frozen.
The sausage may be cooked using either the flat or closed griddle position.
For closed griddle cooking, preheat the Griddler
to 425°. Arrange the sausages
evenly spaced on the hot griddle plate. Using the closed griddle, cook the
sausages for 4 to 5 minutes, until they have reached an internal temperature of
170°F. This is a great, quick way to cook sausages for sausage biscuits or other
breakfast sandwiches.
To cook the sausages on the flat griddle, preheat the Griddler
to 375°F. In the
flat griddle position, cook the sausages for 12 to 15 minutes total, turning once
after 6 minutes. Cooking in the flat griddle position allows you to cook eggs or
pancakes to accompany the sausages, either on one side of the Griddler
or
when finished cooking the sausages.
Recipe note:
It you have a Cuisinart
®
Food Processor, you may use it to chop your own
freshly ground turkey and pork. Follow the instructions that accompany your
processor. After chopping the meat, you may add the chopped apples, onions
and seasonings using the pulse until completely combined.
