Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground pork
- 1 teaspoon fennel seeds
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine fennel seeds, dried oregano, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, crushed red pepper flakes, black pepper, and salt. Mix until well incorporated.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the ground pork to the skillet. Break the pork into small pieces using a wooden spoon or spatula.
Sprinkle the seasoning mix evenly over the ground pork. Stir well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed throughout the meat.
Continue to cook the sausage, breaking it into crumbles and stirring regularly. Cook for about 10-12 minutes until the meat is browned and cooked through.
Once cooked, remove the sausage crumbles from the skillet and place them on a paper-towel-lined plate to absorb any excess fat.
Use the sausage crumbles as a topping for pizzas, a filling for breakfast burritos, mixed into pasta dishes, or as desired.
