Ingredients
- 1 lb Italian chicken sausage mild or hot
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 lb Russet potatoes - peeled and cubed
- 1 yellow onion diced
- 1 cup celery diced
- 1 cup carrot diced
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp dried basil
- ¼ cup tomato paste
- 1 qt chicken broth (4 cups)
- 2 cups water
- ½ cup heavy cream
Instructions
- Cut sausage links into rounds. Heat oil in pot over medium heat. Add sausage to the pot to brown for 5-7 minutes tossing frequently
- Remove sausage from pot and add onion, celery and carrot - add more oil if needed. Saute veggies for about 5 minutes over medium heat. Add salt, oregano and basil and saute for another minute.
- Mix the tomato paste in with the veggies. Then, mix in the chicken broth, water, potatoes and browned sausage. Bring the soup to a boil.
- Reduce heat to a simmer, cover and simmer for about 30 minutes - potatoes should be tender.
- Take ½ cup of broth out of the pot and slowly mix with the heavy cream - this prevents curdling. Pour this mixture back into the pot and stir. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
