Ingredients
- 1 lb. pork sausage
- 1 lb. ground chicken 96% lean
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1/4 cup lite pancake syrup
- 1/2 tsp. dried thyme
- 1/2 Tbsp. olive oil
Instructions
- Add pork, chicken, syrup and thyme to a large bowl and mix well. Use your hands to get the pork and chicken to combine.
- Place your blueberries in a microwave safe bowl and microwave for 30 seconds to soften. Slightly mash the blueberries with the back of a fork. You don't want to turn this into a liquid but more of a very chunky sauce.
- Fold blueberries carefully into the pork and chicken sausage mixture.
- Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium heat and add 1/2 Tbsp. olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the sausage patties. Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup (2 oz. each) and add the sausage into the pan. Flatten into patties. You should be able to fit approximately 6 patties in a large cast iron.
- Cook on both sides until the sausages are cooked through. Approximately 5 minutes on each side. Once cooked, remove and set aside. Begin your next batch. Repeat. Recipe makes approximately 17-18 sausages.
Notes
- Gently mix the meat mixture with your hands, careful to not over-mix to avoid the meat from getting tough.
- Nutritional information is an estimate and will vary with substitutions.
- The cast iron makes these perfectly cooked but you can use any skillet.
