Sausage

Method

Sausage Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the ground lamb, minced garlic, red chili flakes, salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.

  2. 2

    Form Sausages

    Using your hands, form the mixture into sausage shapes or patties, about 2-3 inches long.

  3. 3

    Cook Sausages

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sausages and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are browned and cooked through. Remove from heat and let them rest.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Prepare Flatbreads

    While the sausages are resting, warm the pita bread or flatbreads in a pan or microwave until soft.

  2. 5

    Assemble Verde

    On each flatbread, place a layer of shredded mozzarella cheese. Top with the cooked lamb sausage, and add a generous handful of arugula.

  3. 6

    Finish with Balsamic Glaze

    Drizzle balsamic glaze over the top of each assembled flatbread to add sweetness and depth of flavor.

  4. 7

    Serve

    Cut the assembled flatbreads into halves or quarters and serve immediately while warm.
