Italian Sausage Patties

2 slices (1 ounce each) white sandwich bread
6 ounces skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into small pieces
2 ounces lean ground pork
1 tsp fennel seeds, crushed
¼ tsp dried sage
1 tsp grated orange zest
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 egg white, beaten
3 ounces Italian bread, cut into 8 slices
½ cup jarred roasted red peppers, drained and cut into thin strips

1. Preheat the broiler. In a food processor or blender, process the sandwich bread just until coarse crumbs form. Transfer the crumbs to a large bowl and set aside. Add the chicken to the processor and process until coarsely ground, about 30 seconds.

2. Add the chicken to the bread crumbs along with the pork, fennel seeds, sage, orange zest, salt, black pepper, and egg white, mixing thoroughly. Shape the mixture into 8 round flat patties. Broil the sausage patties 6 inches from the heat, turning once for 6 minutes, or until cooked through.

3. Broil the Italian bread slices for 30 seconds per side, until lightly toasted. Dividing evenly, spoon the roasted red peppers over the toast. Top each piece with a sausage patty and serve.
