Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound smoked sausage
- 1 pound green beans
- 1 pound baby potatoes
- 1 large yellow onion
- 3 pieces garlic cloves
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Rinse the green beans, trim off the ends, and cut them into 2-inch pieces.
Rinse and halve the baby potatoes. For larger potatoes, quarter them.
Slice the smoked sausage into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
Peel and dice the yellow onion. Mince the garlic cloves.
Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
Add the sausage slices to the pot and cook until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes. Remove the sausage and set aside.
In the same pot, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté until softened, about 3 minutes.
Add the green beans and potatoes to the pot. Sprinkle with paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Stir to coat the vegetables with the spices.
Pour in the chicken broth, then add the cooked sausage back into the pot.
Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover the pot and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Serve the stew hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
