Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 pound of premium kielbasa sliced into ½ inch segments
  • 2 cloves of garlic finely minced
  • ½ cup of yellow onion finely diced
  • ½ cup of carrots approximately 2 large ones, peeled and finely diced
  • ½ cup of celery approximately 2-3 stalks, finely sliced
  • 4 cups of high-quality chicken stock
  • 1 1/2 pounds of potatoes diced into precise cubes
  • 2 cups of full-fat milk
  • 2 cups of finely shredded aged cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup of finely shredded parmesan cheese
  • ½ teaspoon of kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper
  • ¼ cup of freshly chopped parsley

Instructions

  • In a premium Dutch oven or suitable soup pot, heat the extra virgin olive oil over medium-high temperature. Once the oil has reached the optimal temperature, introduce the kielbasa segments. Allow them to sear for approximately 5-6 minutes, ensuring regular stirring to achieve uniform browning. Once done, carefully remove the kielbasa using a slotted spoon to drain excess oil.
  • To the same pot, introduce the minced garlic, finely diced onions, carrots, and sliced celery. Allow these ingredients to sauté, stirring occasionally, for a duration of 2 minutes.
  • Gradually introduce the chicken stock followed by the diced potatoes to the pot. Elevate the heat to achieve a boil, subsequently reducing the temperature. Secure the pot with a lid and allow the ingredients to simmer for a span of 15 minutes, or until a fork can easily penetrate the potato cubes.
  • Once the potatoes are adequately tender, reintroduce the seared kielbasa to the pot. Additionally, pour in the milk and introduce both the cheddar and parmesan cheeses. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Reduce the heat to low and consistently stir the mixture for an additional 5-10 minutes, ensuring the cheeses have completely melted into the soup.
  • As a finishing touch, integrate the freshly chopped parsley into the soup. Stir once more before serving, ensuring a uniform blend. The Potato Kielbasa Soup is now ready to be presented and enjoyed.
