Sausage & Pepper Sliders

Mini sliders are still popular and a great way to serve a burger without filling your guests up before the meal.

Ingredients

1 Onion
2-3 cloves Garlic
2 lbs Ground Pork
1 Finely Diced Green Pepper
1 Finely Diced Red Pepper (you can also add these to the onion & garlic start)
1 Egg
¼ cup Marinara Sauce
3 tbsp Grated Pecorino Romano
2 tbsp Fresh Chopped Basil
Bread: Mini-Buns (baby potato rolls are perfect but any bread you like is fine)

Instructions

In a food processor pulse Onion and Garlic until finely chopped. Place Onion mixture into a mixing bowl and add Ground Pork, Green Pepper, Red Pepper, Egg, Marinara Sauce, Grated Pecorino Romano and Basil. Blend well.
Let meat mixture rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to a few hours.
Form meat mixture into small patties. Place on a hot flat griddle or sauté pan and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until internal temperature reads 155℉ for safety.
Place on mini-buns (baby potato rolls are perfect but any bread you like is fine).

Notes

These are great just as is but I love serving them with caramelized onions and peppers, mozzarella and some marinara sauce or simply with catsup, lettuce and tomato slices. Whatever you like - anything goes.
