Sausage and Potato Stew

It's a dark and stormy night, and this sausage potato stew is the perfect dinner for it.

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 carrots , cut into chunks
  • 2 stalks celery , sliced
  • 1 medium onion , chopped
  • 1 garlic clove , minced
  • 375 g Polish or other smoked sausage , cut into 1/2-in. chunks
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 6 medium potatoes , peeled and cubed
  • 2 1/2 cups chicken broth , (made from bouillon cubes)

Instructions

  • In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the carrot, celery, onion and garlic and cook, stirring, for about 5 minutes or until the onion is beginning to soften. Add the sausage chunks, paprika, salt and pepper and cook for about 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
  • Now dump in the potatoes and broth and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover the pan, lower the heat to medium low and let simmer for about 20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
  • SPLURGE! Double the sausage if you’re feeling flush. But everything else is perfect just the way it is.
  • SPLURGE! Oh go ahead and use chicken breasts, if you must. And while you’re at it, double the amount of chicken. It will cost you at least an extra 75 cents a serving.
