Instructions
Prep the Ingredients: Begin by chopping the onions and mincing the garlic. Peel and dice the potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Remove the casings from the Italian sausage, if using links.
Brown the Sausage: In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook the Italian sausage over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as it cooks, until it’s browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Sauté the Aromatics: Once the sausage is cooked, add the chopped onions to the pot and sauté until they’re soft and translucent, about 3-5 minutes. Then, add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
Add the Potatoes and Broth: Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth and add the diced potatoes. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
Season and Serve: Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning as needed, adding salt, pepper, or any other desired herbs or spices. Ladle the hot Italian Sausage and Potato Soup into bowls and serve immediately, garnished with freshly chopped parsley or grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.
