Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the ground pork, minced garlic, fennel seeds, paprika, crushed red pepper flakes, salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

  2. 2

    Form the Sausages

    Using your hands, shape the mixture into sausage links or patties, depending on your preference. Make sure they are compact to hold their shape during cooking.

  3. 3

    Cook the Sausages

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sausages and cook for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are browned and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 160°F (70°C).

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove the sausages from the skillet and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy them in pasta, on a bun, or with your favorite sides!
