Winter Potato and Corn Chowder
Ingredients:
1 pound sausage I used regular Italian
4 medium potatoes peeled and diced
1 medium onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups chicken broth (you can use Veggie too)
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup corn, canned or frozen
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper
Optional 2 teaspoons of Rosemary, Thyme or both.
Optional garnishes: Parsley, Cheese, Sour cream, or bacon
Instructions:
1.) First, prep all of your ingredients ahead of time. This will ensure you haven't forgotten anything and will make cooking smooth.
2.) In a large pot add in some olive oil and heat over medium heat and then add the sausage and brown for about 5-7 minutes. Then set aside in a separate bowl.
3.) To that same pot, add in your garlic and onions and cook for 3-4 minutes untill the onions are nice and soft. Careful not to burn the garlic.
4.) Add in your potatoes and the 4 cups of your chicken or vegetable broth. Raise temperature to a boil and then reduce the heat and allow to simmer for 15-20 minutes or until your potatoes are soft and slide off your fork when pierced.
5.) Add in your 1 cup of cream and about 1 can of corn. Raise the heat to medium again and allow them to cook for an additional 5-10 minutes or until hot.
6.) Add in your salt, pepper, and optional rosemary and thyme. Serve alone or topped with some of your favorite potato soup toppings.
