Time 1h30m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 cups chicken broth
2 cups water, or more as needed
1 large onion, chopped
5 cloves garlic, minced
5 sprigs fresh thyme
3 bay leaves
1 tablespoon dried sage, or more to taste
1 pound ground hot Italian sausage
4 red potatoes, or more to taste, chopped
1 large bunch kale, stems removed and chopped
1 pound fresh mushrooms, quartered
1 cup half-and-half
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a stockpot over medium-low heat. Whisk in flour and stir until the mixture becomes paste-like and light golden brown, about 3 minutes. Gradually whisk chicken broth and water into the roux, and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, thyme, bay leaves, and sage; cook until the mixture has thickened onions are tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer sausage to a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess grease.
  • Add sausage, potatoes, kale, and mushrooms to the stockpot. Simmer until potatoes are tender, about 45 minutes. Add half-and-half and season with salt and pepper.

This soup is a great way to sneak some vegetables into your kids. My kids love it and they don't even realize they're eating kale.

This soup is so versatile. I've made it with different types of sausage, different vegetables, and even different broths. It always turns out great. It's a great way to use up whatever you have on hand.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my soup turned out really watery. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't thicken up. Maybe I didn't cook it long enough?

This is a great soup to make ahead of time. I made it on Sunday and it lasted me all week for lunch. It's also a great soup to freeze. I froze some of the leftovers and it was just as good when I reheated it.

I made this soup in my slow cooker and it was perfect! The flavors had time to meld together and the soup was so rich and flavorful. I served it with some crusty bread and it was a delicious meal.

This soup was a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better. Overall, it's a good soup, but it needs a little something extra.

I'm not a huge fan of kale, but I really enjoyed this soup. The sausage and potatoes balance out the flavor of the kale, and the soup is very creamy and flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.

This soup is so hearty and flavorful. I made it on a cold winter night and it was the perfect comfort food. I used Italian sausage and added some chopped spinach to the soup. It was absolutely delicious.

I've made this soup several times now, and it's always a winner. It's so easy to make and so delicious. I love that I can add whatever vegetables I have on hand. This time I added some chopped carrots and celery, and it was even better than before.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover kale and sausage. It's also a very affordable meal to make. I used ground turkey instead of sausage, and it turned out just as good.
