Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
- 1 pound low-sodium sausage
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion
- 3 carrots
- 3 celery stalks
- 3 garlic cloves
- 2 russet potatoes
- 14.5 ounces canned no-salt-added diced tomatoes
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 bay leaf
- 0.25 cup chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Begin by preparing your vegetables. Dice the onion, slice the carrots and celery, mince the garlic, and cut the potatoes into 1-inch cubes.
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the sausage with a slotted spoon and set aside.
In the same pot, add the diced onion, carrots, and celery. Cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables start to soften, about 5 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute or until fragrant.
Pour the low-sodium broth into the pot, scraping the bottom to release any flavorful browned bits.
Stir in the diced potatoes, canned diced tomatoes with their juice, browned sausage, dried thyme, dried oregano, black pepper, and the bay leaf.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
Once the stew is done, remove and discard the bay leaf. Stir in the freshly chopped parsley.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, keeping in mind that this is a low sodium dish.
Serve hot and enjoy your hearty, low sodium sausage stew!
