Plate or Serving Dish
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 2 cloves garlic deftly minced
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1-2 fresh jalapeños finely diced
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp ground cumin
- ½ tsp black pepper ground
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- ½ tsp dried oregano
- ¼ tsp red pepper flakes optional
Prepare Ingredients: Gather all ingredients for a tidy and smooth cooking process.
Combine: In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, diced jalapeños, minced garlic, and all spices. Mix thoroughly to distribute spices and flavors evenly.
Cook: Shape mixture into sausage links. Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Cook a small amount in a pan, taste, and adjust seasoning if necessary. Cook sausages until browned and cooked through (5-7 mins per side). Ensure sausages reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Serve: Serve on buns or with your favorite side dishes along with ketchup and honey mustard sauce.
- Use ground chicken that is at least 90% lean for the best results.
- To make sure the sausages don’t stick to the skillet, make sure the oil is heated before adding them.
- If you want a spicier dish, you can add more jalapeno peppers or adjust the amount of spices.
- For a more flavorful dish, try adding a few tablespoons of chopped fresh herbs.If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
