Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound Ground Italian Pork Sausage
  • 1 Small Yellow Onion diced
  • 3 cloves Minced Garlic
  • 2 tablespoons Tomato Paste
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Thyme
  • 5 cups Chicken Broth
  • 1 ½ pounds Yukon Gold Potatoes diced
  • 2 cups Spinach
  • ¼ cup Heavy Whipping Cream
  • Salt to taste
  • Black Pepper to taste
  • Red Pepper Flakes optional

Instructions
 

  • Heat a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the Italian sausage and onions and cook until the sausage is browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess grease.
  • Add the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
  • Stir in the tomato paste, paprika, and thyme, coating the sausage and onions.
  • Gradually pour in chicken broth, stirring to combine and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
  • Add the diced potatoes and bring the soup to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Stir in the fresh spinach and simmer for another 1–2 minutes, just until wilted.
  • Add heavy whipping cream and heat through. Season with salt, black pepper, and optional red pepper flakes.
  • Serve warm with crusty bread or garlic bread.
