Calories: 244kcal
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground pork sausage
- 1 small yellow onion, finely diced (about ½ cup)
- 3 medium jalapeno peppers, seeded, finely diced
- 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon dried marjoram
- ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 cup (125 g) all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (113 g) sharp cheddar cheese shredded
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- To a large bowl, add all ingredients. Mix well.
- Place a large piece of parchment paper on a work surface and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Spread half of the sausage mixture on top.
- Spray another sheet of parchment paper with nonstick cooking spray. Lay the parchment, spray side down, on top of the sausage mixture. With a rolling pin, roll out the mixture to a thickness of about ½ inch.
- Remove the top piece of parchment paper. Press a cup or round cookie cutter (3 ½ to 4 inches in diameter) into the mixture to form patties. Repeat with the remaining sausage mixture. You will have enough for about 12 patties. (You can also form the patties by hand and skip steps 3 and 4.)
- In a large skillet over medium-low heat (working in batches as needed) cook the sausage patties for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until browned and the internal temperature reaches 160°F.
- Serve immediately.
