Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
• ½ teaspoon onion powder
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 pound ground pork
• 1 teaspoon rubbed sage
• 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
• ¼ teaspoon dried thyme leaves
• ½ teaspoon ground marjoram

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Combine ground pork, sage, salt, crushed red pepper, marjoram, black pepper, onion powder, and thyme leaves in a large bowl; mix until evenly combined. Form mixture into 10 small patties.

Step 2

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, cook patties for 3 minutes. Flip and cook 3 minutes more or until juices run clear. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (73 degrees C). Transfer patties to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess grease.
