Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 6 chicken or turkey sausages (about 14 oz total)
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 celery stalks, sliced
- 2 carrots, sliced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme
- 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
- 2 bay leaves
- 1/2 cup wild rice (about 3.5 oz)
- 3 medium potatoes, peeled and chunked
- Salt, to taste
- 1 1/2 cups light cream or half-and-half (12.5 fl oz)
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add sausages and cook until browned, about 5 minutes; slice them into bite-sized pieces afterward.
- In the same pot, sauté onions, celery, carrots, and garlic until softened.
- Stir in thyme and flour; cook for about a minute to eliminate raw flour taste.
- Gradually add the broth while stirring to prevent lumps. Then add bay leaves, wild rice, potatoes, and sausages back into the pot; season with salt.
- Bring to a boil over high heat then reduce heat to low; cover and simmer for about 45 minutes until rice is tender.
- Remove bay leaves before serving; stir in cream just before serving.
