How to Make Homemade Sausage - Chicken Sausage Recipe

I think I get requests for homemade chicken sausage recipes more than any other kind of sausage. Here is an easy homemade chicken sausage recipe I know the whole family will enjoy.

First off, before we start making the homemade sausage, let's talk chicken. If you are making homemade chicken sausage so you can eat sausage with less fat and calories then you will want to use boneless skinless chicken breast for your homemade chicken sausage. If you're not concerned with the fat or calories I suggest that you use boneless skinless chicken thighs. The thighs contain a higher percentage of fat, thus giving your homemade chicken sausage a more flavorable taste.

Now that we have that taken care of... Let's get down to business.

Homemade Chicken Sausage Ingredients

5 pounds Chicken of your choice
1 Small Onion
8 oz. Grated Parmesan Cheese
2 tbsp Rosemary
2 tbsp Oregano
1 1/2 tbsp Thyme
1 tbsp Sea Salt
1/2 tbsp Cracked Black Pepper
1/4 tbsp Crushed Red Pepper

Mix together all of the dry ingredients in a small bowl. Cut the chicken into small cubes. Chop the onion and add it to the chicken cubes. Grind the chicken and the onion together. Mix the ground chicken and onion with the dry ingredients. After you mix them you can make a small patty out of the mixture and pan fry it to test the flavor of your homemade chicken sausage. If you're happy with the taste of your sausage, place the mixture in the fridge to get cool. Now that your sausage has had time to cool off it's time to stuff your chicken sausage. Your can use hog casings for a larger sausage, or you can use sheep casings for a small diameter sausage, it's your choice. Once you finish stuffing your homemade chicken sausage your can cook it right then and freeze the remaining sausage for future use. I hope you enjoy this recipe for homemade chicken sausage and have fun making it.
