The refrigerated chicken sausages in this recipe have a smooth texture, similar to a hot dog. When sliced and then cooked, the ends of the sausages curl up, making them perfect for a Halloween-themed brunch. Use a light glaze of butter, vinegar and sugar to add an extra pop of flavor and caramelization.

Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon unsalted butter
- 9 links refrigerated fully cooked chicken breakfast sausages (from two 7.5-ounce packages), quartered lengthwise
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon packed light brown sugar
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage pieces in a single layer and cook, tossing occasionally, until lightly browned and beginning to curl, about 5 minutes.
- Stir the vinegar and brown sugar in a small bowl. Add to the skillet along with the remaining 1 teaspoon butter. Cook, stirring, until the brown sugar caramelizes on the sausages and the vinegar and butter create a light glaze, 2 to 3 more minutes.
