Sausage Patties

Grilled Onions and Mozzarella Cheese

Method

Sausage Patties

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sausage Mixture

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork sausage, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well until all spices are evenly distributed.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the sausage mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, about 1/2 inch thick.

  3. 3

    Cook the Patties

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage patties for about 5-6 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and browned. Remove from skillet and keep warm.

Grilled Onions and Mozzarella Cheese

  1. 4

    Slice the Onion

    Peel and slice the medium onion into thin rings.

  2. 5

    Grill the Onions

    In the same skillet used for the sausage, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden and caramelized.

  3. 6

    Melt the Cheese

    Once the onions are caramelized, place the cooked sausage patties back in the skillet on top of the onions. Sprinkle 1 cup of mozzarella cheese over the patties, cover the skillet, and let it cook for another 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted.

Home Fries

  1. 7

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the large potatoes. Cut them into small cubes, about 1-inch in size.

  2. 8

    Cook the Home Fries

    In a separate skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the cubed potatoes and season with paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and tender.

Combine and Serve

  1. 9

    Plate the Dish

    On a plate, serve the sausage patty topped with grilled onions and melted mozzarella cheese alongside a generous helping of home fries.
