APPLE-MAPLE CHICKEN SAUSAGE BREAKFAST SAMMIES

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, 1 turn of the pan
  • 4 tablespoons butter, divided
  • 1 pound ground chicken breast
  • 1 small McIntosh apple peeled and finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup, eyeball it
  • 1 tablespoon grill seasoning blend (recommended: Montreal Steak Seasoning by McCormick)
  • 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg, eyeball it
  • 4 jumbo/sandwich size English muffins, fork split
  • 8 large eggs
  • Splash of cold milk
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1/4 pound Cheddar, thinly sliced or shredded

Directions

Preheat broiler and preheat a medium skillet over medium-high heat with 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon butter. Mix chicken with apple, syrup, grill seasoning, poultry seasoning, cinnamon and nutmeg and score the meat into 4 sections. Form 4 large, thin patties and set into hot butter and oil. Cook 5 minutes on each side.

Place fork split muffins on broiler pan and toast. Butter toasted muffins and reserve.

Heat a second nonstick skillet over medium heat and melt a tablespoon of butter in the pan. Beat eggs with milk, salt and pepper and scramble to desired doneness.

Pile 1 sausage patty, 1/4 of the eggs and Cheddar cheese on each of 4 muffin halves. Return muffins to broiler to melt cheese, 1 to 2 minutes, then set tops into place and serve.
