Soups, Stews and Chili Recipe ⟶ Cajun Potato Soup

This is a hearty and rich potato soup with cream and spicy andouille sausage. Serve with fresh garlic bread. Use Polish sausage in place of the andouille for a slightly different flavor.

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• ½ onion, diced
• 5 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 pounds andouille sausage, sliced into rounds
• 6 russet potatoes, peeled and cut into bite-sized pieces
• 3 cups chicken broth
• 2 cups milk
• 1 ¾ cups heavy cream
• 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
• 1 bunch fresh spinach, chopped
• ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Cooking Directions

1. Heat the butter and oil together in a large stock pot over medium heat. Cook the onion and garlic in the butter and oil until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the sausage slices; cook and stir another 5 minutes. Stir in the potatoes; cook and stir 15 minutes. Pour in the chicken broth, milk, heavy cream, and Italian seasoning. Bring to a simmer and cook 10 to 12 minutes until the potatoes are tender. Mix in the spinach. Remove from heat. Top with Parmesan cheese.
