Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 lb sausage
- 4 oz canned green chilies, mild
- 1 ½ cups Bisquick™
- 2 cups Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons Chugwater Chili Green Chili Seasoning
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, mix the sausage, diced green chilies, Bisquick™, shredded Monterey Jack cheese, and Chugwater Chili Green Chili Seasoning thoroughly until the mixture forms a dough.
- Form Balls: Roll the dough into approximately 1-inch sized balls. You can adjust the size but note that larger balls will require longer baking time.
- Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper, foil, or lightly spray it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Bake: Place the sausage balls on the prepared baking sheet evenly spaced apart. Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (204°C) for about 30 minutes, or until they turn golden brown on top and are cooked through.
- Serve: Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm as an appetizer, snack, or alongside your favorite chili.
Notes
- You can use either mild or hot green chilies depending on your spice preference.
- Ensure sausage is fully cooked by checking internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
- Cheese choice can be varied; Monterey Jack adds a mild, creamy flavor.
- Freeze uncooked sausage balls for up to 1 month; bake directly from frozen, adding 5-10 minutes to cook time.
- For crispier texture, flip sausage balls halfway through baking.
