Yummy Thai Chicken Sausage 16 gms protein

My husband made these wonderfully spiced sausages. If you're sick of bland food, this adds some nice flavor without being too hot.

Ingredients

1 lb ground chicken

1/4 c cilantro

1 tsp chopped mint

1 tbsp fresh squeezed lime juice

1 tbsp Thai Red curry paste

1 tbsp Asian fish sauce

2 garlic cloves finely diced

2 tsp minced ginger

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp red pepper flakes

1/8 tsp black pepper

Method

1. Mix all ingredients together. It will be a bit sticky. Let the mixture sit for 30 minutes for all flavors to meld.

2. Heat a saucepan until hot, pour in a tablespoon of oil and spread it around.

3. Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, put 1 oz sized dollops of the mixture about 2-3 inches apart. Smash them down into circles

4. In 2-3 minutes when the bottoms are brown, carefully turn over and cook for another 2-3 minutes.

5. You can either cook them all and freeze them in a ziplock baggie, or cook just what you need for meals.

6. These are very soft and they were easy for us to eat.
