Homemade Pan Sausage Food

SHEET PAN SAUSAGE, PEPPERS, AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F: Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven.

SHEET-PAN SAUSAGE WITH SPRING ONIONS, POTATOES AND MUSTARD

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. On a rimmed baking sheet, combine spring onions, potatoes, sauerkraut, garlic and 1/4 cup oil; season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Spread in an even layer and roast for 10 minutes.
• Arrange sausages on top and roast until spring onions and potatoes are tender and sausages are heated through, about 30 minutes longer.
• While the sausages roast, in a small bowl, combine the 2 tablespoons parsley, if using, with the mustard, shallot and lemon juice, plus the remaining 1/4 cup oil and 1 tablespoon water. Stir to combine, then season with salt and pepper.
• Divide sausages and vegetables among plates. Sprinkle with additional parsley, if using, and drizzle with mustard relish to taste.

LOAF PAN SAUSAGE AND PEPPER LASAGNA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Mix together the ricotta, Parmesan, egg, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, a few grinds of pepper and 1 cup of the mozzarella in a medium bowl until combined.
• Spread 1/3 cup of the cheese mixture in the bottom of an 8 1/2-by-4 1/2-inch glass loaf pan. Top with 1 lasagna noodle, followed by one-third of the spinach, one-third of the red pepper and then one-third of the sausage. Repeat the layering twice, starting with 1/3 cup of the cheese mixture. Top with the last lasagna noodle and spread with the remaining cheese mixture. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella.
• Bake until the top is golden brown and bubbling and the noodles are cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.

SHEET-PAN SAUSAGES WITH CARAMELIZED SHALLOTS AND APPLES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Cut the shallots lengthwise into 1/2-inch-thick wedges. Core the apples and cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges. Place the shallots and apples on a sheet pan, drizzle with the 1 tablespoon olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Roast the mixture for 10 to 15 minutes, until the shallots are just starting to brown at the edges.
• Meanwhile, place the sausages on a plate. Using a fork, prick a few holes in each sausage. Drizzle the sausages with olive oil and toss to coat.
• Add the rosemary and mustard to the pan with the apples and shallots, and toss, spreading everything out into one even layer. Arrange the sausages on the pan, evenly distributed, and roast for 25 to 30 minutes, flipping the sausages and tossing the apples and shallots with the juices released from the sausages halfway through, until the sausages are browned and cooked to 160 degrees and the shallots are tender and caramelized.
• Transfer the sausages to a serving platter and discard the rosemary sprigs. Pour the vinegar over the apples and shallots, and toss well, scraping up any browned bits from the pan. Transfer to the serving platter with the sausages, sprinkle with parsley, if using, and serve immediately.

SHEET-PAN SAUSAGES AND BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH HONEY MUSTARD

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees, and place a sheet pan in the oven. Score the sausages in a few places on both sides, making sure not to cut all the way through. Transfer to a large bowl with the brussels sprouts, potatoes and 2 tablespoons olive oil, and stir until coated. (If the mixture seems dry, add a little more oil.) Season with salt and pepper.
• Spread the mixture in an even layer on the heated baking sheet, and arrange the vegetables cut-sides down. Roast 15 minutes, until the brussels sprouts and potatoes start to soften. (The sausages will not be cooked through yet.)
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together the honey, mustard and mustard seeds, if using.
• Drizzle the honey mustard over the sausages and vegetables, and toss or shake to coat. Flip the sausages. Sprinkle with almonds, if using. Roast until the sausages are cooked through and the vegetables are golden and tender, another 10 minutes or so. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

HOT PORK PAN SAUSAGE

Steps:

• In large mixing bowl add all ingredients except meat and mix well. Add meat and combine with seasoning mixture by kneading, folding and turning like bread dough. Mix until meat is uniformally seasoned but do not overwork or it will start to emulsify.
• Cover and chill in refrigerator several hours or overnight.
• Divide meat into desired portions (a 1/4 cup dry measure makes 2 oz by weight of this meat mixture) and form into patties ( a 2 1/2" cookie cutter ring forms a nice 2 oz patty).
• Put the patties on a parchment lined cookie sheet and freeze.
• When frozen transfer the patties to freezer bags and store in freezer until ready to use.
• To cook thaw and pan fry until done.

SHEET PAN DINNER WITH SAUSAGE AND VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easier cleanup and spray with cooking spray.
• Combine 2 tablespoons olive oil, rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Add potatoes and toss to coat. Place potatoes skin side-down on the baking sheet in a single layer.
• Roast in the preheated oven until tender when pierced with a fork, 23 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven; stir.
• Mix remaining olive oil, salt, pepper, onion flakes, paprika, parsley, and oregano in the same bowl. Add sausage, green beans, bell pepper, and onion; mix until well combined. Add to the baking sheet; spread in a flat layer.
• Roast until vegetables are tender and potatoes and sausage pieces are browned, tossing halfway through the roasting process, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve immediately.

BREAKFAST SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Combine diced pork with all other ingredients and chill for 1 hour. Using the fine blade of a grinder, grind the pork. Form into 1-inch rounds. Refrigerate and use within 1 week or freeze for up to 3 months. For immediate use, saute patties over medium-low heat in a non-stick pan. Saute until brown and cooked through, approximately 10 to 15 minutes.

BREAKFAST SAUSAGE

Steps:

• In a small, bowl, combine the sage, salt, ground black pepper, marjoram, brown sugar, crushed red pepper and cloves. Mix well.
• Place the pork in a large bowl and add the mixed spices to it. Mix well with your hands and form into patties.
• Saute the patties in a large skillet over medium high heat for 5 minutes per side, or until internal pork temperature reaches 160 degrees F (73 degrees C).

PAN-CRISPED SAUSAGES

Steps:

• Prick sausages all over with a fork, and transfer to a skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium heat. Fill skillet with enough water to reach a quarter of the way up sides of sausages. Simmer, covered, until sausages are cooked through and water evaporates, 10 to 15 minutes. (If sausages have cooked through but water has not evaporated, uncover, and continue to cook until water evaporates.)
• Continue to cook sausages, turning, until crisp and golden brown all around, about 3 minutes. Serve with cheeses.
