- 2 tsp ground poultry seasoning
- 1/2 tsp crushed fennel seeds
- Dash red pepper flakes
- 1/8 tsp allspice
- 1/4 nutmeg

Instructions
First, Caramelized the onions:
-
Heat a medium skillet over low heat and add the coconut oil or ghee. Add the onions to the pan and stir to coat, sprinkle with salt.
-
Continue to cook over med/low heat, stirring, about 15 minutes to caramelize.
-
Add in spinach to the caramelized onions and toss to coat, remove from heat.
Now, form the patties:
-
Allow the onion/spinach mixture to cool for a few minutes, then mix with ground chicken and all the spices.
-
Form into 10 patties*, then either fry for 3-4 minutes per side over medium heat, or bake for 15 minutes at 425 degrees F, turning once**
-
Serve with hash browns and eggs (or whatever you want!) and enjoy!
Recipe Notes
*At this point you can freeze the patties to cook at a later point if you choose.
**The cooked patties can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days if you want to cook them ahead of time.
