Apple-Maple Chicken Sausage

• 1 Tb vegetable oil
• 1 Tb butter
• 1 small apple, peeled and finely chopped
• 1 pound ground chicken (I used ground turkey)
  
• 1/4 c pure maple syrup
• 1 Tb grill seasoning
• 1/2 tsp poultry seasoning
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp grated nutmeg

Preheat a medium skillet over medium-high heat with oil and butter. Mix chicken with apple, syrup, grill seasoning, poultry seasoning, cinnamon and nutmeg. Form patties (I got 7 good-sized patties out of this), and set in hot butter and oil. Cook 5 minutes on each side or until no longer pink.

We had these Christmas morning with gingerbread waffles and mulled maple syrup. New tradition, I say!
