Ingredients

• 1 lb Ground pork (90% lean)
• 0.5 lb Ground turkey (93% lean)
• 1 tsp Dried sage
• 1 tsp Dried thyme
• 1 tsp Onion powder
• 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
• 0.5 tsp Smoked paprika
• 0.25 tsp Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 2 tbsp Water or unsalted chicken broth
• 1 tbsp Olive oil (for cooking)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork and ground turkey. Mix them together thoroughly using your hands or a spatula.

Step 2

Sprinkle the dried sage, dried thyme, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, crushed red pepper flakes (if using), and black pepper evenly over the meat mixture.

Step 3

Add the water or unsalted chicken broth to the bowl. Mix well until the spices are evenly distributed throughout the meat.

Step 4

Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten each ball into a patty shape about 1/2 inch thick.

Step 5

Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 6

Place the patties in the skillet (work in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding). Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

Step 7

Transfer the cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.

Step 8

Serve warm and enjoy! These patties pair well with a renal-friendly breakfast like low-phosphorus toast and fresh fruit.
