Chef's tip
Ground chicken is often leaner than ground pork and can dry out more quickly. When browning it, add a little oil if needed and keep the pan juices unless the recipe says to drain them. Cook just until it reaches 165°F (74°C).
1 tsp fennel seeds, lightly crushed
1 tsp dried sage
½ tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp garlic powder
¼ tsp red pepper flakes
¾ tsp kosher salt
¼ tsp black pepper
1 tbsp neutral oil (such as canola oil or vegetable oil)

For the eggs

4 large eggs
1 tbsp unsalted butter
Chef's tip
Use a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one.
salt and pepper, to taste

To assemble

4 slices cheddar cheese
4 english muffins, split

Instructions

1
In a small bowl, combine the ground pork, fennel seeds, dried sage, smoked paprika, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, kosher salt, and black pepper. Mix until the spices are evenly distributed, then divide into 4 equal portions and press each into a round patty about 4 inches wide and 1/2 inch thick.
2
Heat the neutral oil in a large (12-inch) skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the sausage patties and cook undisturbed for 3–4 minutes, until the undersides are deep brown. Flip and cook for another 3–4 minutes, until the patties reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) with no pink remaining at the center. Transfer to a plate.
