3.5 lbs chicken thighs
1.5 cups salted & roasted peanuts
1 cup Sticky, short-grain rice
3/4 cup Coconut milk
3 Tbs green onions, finely chopped (45g)
1/4 cup Chopped Garlic (36g)
1 cup Chopped Cilantro (35g)
30g Kosher Salt
22g Brown Sugar
6 tsp Hot Chili-garlic sauce ('Rooster'-brand)-add more if HOT is desired
1 Tbs Sesame oil
6g fresh ground black pepper
5.5g Ground Galangal (option: ground ginger)
24mm or 28mm sheep casings

Cook & cool rice first.
Bone chicken, reserving all meat, fat AND skin. Chill until partially frozen.
Grind chicken with rice and peanuts through medium plate (4.5mm).
Add salt, coconut milk & green onions to mixture; mix well.
Add remaining ingredients & mix thoroughly until sticky paste is formed.
Stuff into casings; tie off into 4.0" links. Air dry until casing are dry to touch. *Lightly poach in 160°water until the internal temp of 165° is reached. Dry & put in fridge or freezer. These can be quickly re-heated or grilled.
* poaching is an option. You can skip this step & simply refrigerate uncooked links. Cook to proper IT before serving.

 Nice.  Watching for the Q
 
This cougar78 recipe was great; I was lucky enough to have a couple pheasants given to me, and used those in stead of the chicken.  We were invited to a wine tasting party and needed an appetizer; the Thai Pheasant Sausage was a very big hit!  Here I'm looking confident with this new batch of sausage!


I made links for the party, but you don't need to; below I'm frying a batch of links and dollops that were just spooned out of the batter. Cook at a medium low temp so they don't overbrown and caramelize, given the sticky rice and brown sugar ingredients.  And look at the recipe to consider modifications; I added a little more green onions and garlic, for example.  Consider any pheasants or grouse hiding in the freezer fair game!

I have say I think I liked it better as a patty than linked, I really enjoyed it with white rice, soy & some chopped green onions...everyone that has tried it keeps talking about how good the think it is thanks again for this one.
 
Bringing an old thread back to life here. I really love the idea of these sausages but have a son with a peanut allergy. Anyone have thoughts on a substitute for the goobers? I can get peanut free almonds or we always have peanut free almond butter at home. I know they won't be quite the same as peanut but can't really make something at home that he can't have. At 3 years old it's just not fair to eat food in front of him that he can't try. Plus just for safety sake the only peanut we have in the house is a jar of Skippy for his little brother to help him fend off the same allergy.
 
Using almonds sounds interesting. If you do let us know how that comes out. Could be just as good or better for all I can guess.
 
You could try cashews, or a combination of cashews and almonds. You'll have to play with flavor profile until you find something you like.
