This creamy sausage soup bursts with flavor, combining the richness of Italian sausage, the earthiness of kale, and the heartiness of potatoes.
Ingredients
Scale:
1 pound Italian sausage (spicy or mild)
1 medium Onion, chopped
3 cloves Garlic, minced
4 medium Potatoes, diced (Yukon Gold or red)
6 cups Chicken broth
1 cup Heavy cream
2 cups Kale, chopped
1 teaspoon Red pepper flakes (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
Add the Italian sausage to the pot, breaking it apart with a spoon. Cook until browned, about 6-8 minutes.
Stir in the diced potatoes and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cook for about 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
Add the chopped kale and heavy cream, stirring well. Let it simmer for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the kale to wilt and the flavors to meld.
Season with red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper to taste. Serve hot and enjoy!
