Experience the comforting flavors of Italian Tuscan Soup with creamy broth, hearty potatoes, and savory sausage.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb Italian sausage (mild or hot, based on preference)
  • 4 medium russet potatoes (about 2 lbs, sliced)
  • 1 medium onion (diced)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups kale (chopped)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes (optional, adjust to taste)
  • to taste salt
  • to taste pepper
  • for cooking olive oil

Instructions

  1. Sautéing the Aromatics: In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 3 minutes until it begins to soften.
  2. Adding Garlic and Building Flavors: Introduce the minced garlic to the pot and cook for an additional minute, stirring constantly to avoid burning.
  3. Browning the Sausage: Remove the casing from the Italian sausage and add it to the pot. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon (about 5-7 minutes).
  4. Simmering the Potatoes: Once the sausage is browned, add the sliced potatoes to the pot along with the chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let simmer for 15 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
  5. Adding the Finishing Touches: Stir in the chopped kale, heavy cream, and red pepper flakes (if using). Let the soup simmer for another 5 minutes to let the flavors meld. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Serving with Style: Serve hot, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese if desired.

Notes

This soup can be made ahead of time; add the cream just before serving for best texture.
