Homemade Turkey Sausage image

These low-fat homemade turkey sausage patties are simple to prepare and can be refrigerated or frozen. Be sure to buy ground turkey with some fat in it, ideally 93 percent lean, because some fat is needed to achieve that rich sausage essence. Besides, even with that much fat, the meat qualifies as lean.

Time 25m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 teaspoon whole fennel seed
1 teaspoon dried rubbed sage
3/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
1 lb 93% lean ground turkey
1 tablespoon olive oil, divided use

Steps:

  • Whisk together the fennel seed, sage, salt, pepper, thyme, garlic powder and allspice in a small bowl.
  • Place the turkey in a medium bowl, then sprinkle the seasoning blend over it.
  • Use your clean hands or 2 forks to gently work the seasoning into the meat, being careful not to overmix.
  • It's OK if they are not absolutely evenly distributed throughout.
  • Form the mixture into 8 (3 inch) patties. May be refrigerated to meld flavors or frozen for future use.
  • Heat half the oil in a medium skillet over medium high heat. Once the oil shimmers, add half the patties; cook until nicely browned on the outside and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side.
  • Transfer to a plate; repeat with the remaining oil and patties.
