Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 10

12 slices white sandwich bread
Coarse salt and ground pepper
2 packages (1 pound each) smoked Polish sausage, halved lengthwise, cut into 2 1/2-inch pieces
2 large onions, chopped
8 cloves garlic, chopped
1/2 cup tomato paste
1 can (14.5 ounces) reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 cup dry red wine
1 teaspoon dried thyme

Steps:

  • In a food processor, pulse bread until large crumbs form (you should have about 6 cups); season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a 6-quart heavy-bottom saucepan, cook sausage, onions, and garlic, stirring occasionally, until onions are translucent and sausage is starting to brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
