Ingredients

Scale

Ground Sausage:

  • 1 lb ground Italian sausage (mild or spicy)

Vegetables:

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 carrots, peeled and chopped
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 4 cups russet or gold potatoes, peeled & cubed

Broth & Seasoning:

  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp dried parsley
  • 1/4 tsp smoked paprika (optional)
  • Salt & pepper, to taste

Creamy Texture:

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup sour cream or cream cheese (for extra richness)
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tbsp cold water (optional, to thicken)

Instructions

  1. Brown the sausage: In a large pot over medium heat, cook sausage until browned and crumbled. Remove and set aside.
  2. Sauté the vegetables: In the same pot, heat olive oil. Add onion, garlic, carrots, and celery. Sauté 4–5 minutes until softened.
  3. Simmer: Add the potatoes, cooked sausage, chicken broth, thyme, parsley, paprika, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook for 20–25 minutes until potatoes are fork-tender.
  4. Make it creamy: Stir in heavy cream and sour cream (or cream cheese). If desired, add cornstarch slurry to thicken.
  5. Final touch: Simmer for 5–10 minutes more. Adjust seasoning to taste. Serve warm with crusty bread!
