I can't hardly stand the smell of ground turkey when it is cooking. I do love Jimmy Dean pre-cooked, frozen, ground turkey sausage patties though. It is sometimes difficult to find. My grocery store has ground chicken so I decided to make my own ground chicken sausage patties. I used to work for a butcher at the local farmer's co-op and one of my duties was to make sausage. I used my recipe from working there to make this recipe using chicken instead of pork.
