That’s a classic, hearty one-pot comfort dish — simple but full of flavor! 🥔🥬🌭 Here’s how to make Green Beans & Potatoes with Polish Sausage in Chicken Broth:
🥘 Green Beans and Potatoes with Polish Sausage
Ingredients
-
1 lb fresh green beans, trimmed (can use frozen if needed)
-
1 ½ lbs potatoes, cut into chunks (Yukon gold or red potatoes work best)
-
1 lb Polish sausage (kielbasa), sliced into rounds
-
1 medium onion, sliced
-
2 cloves garlic, minced
-
3 cups chicken broth
-
2 tbsp butter (or olive oil)
-
1 tsp smoked paprika (optional)
-
½ tsp black pepper
-
Salt, to taste
-
Fresh parsley, for garnish
Instructions
-
Brown the sausage → In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt butter. Add sausage slices and cook until lightly browned. Remove and set aside.
-
Cook onions & garlic → In the same pot, sauté onion until soft, then add garlic for 1 minute.
-
Add potatoes & broth → Place potatoes in the pot, pour in chicken broth, season with paprika, pepper, and a pinch of salt. Cover and simmer 10–12 minutes.
-
Add green beans & sausage → Stir in green beans and browned sausage. Cover again and simmer another 12–15 minutes, until potatoes are tender and beans are cooked but not mushy.
-
Serve → Adjust seasoning, garnish with fresh parsley, and ladle into bowls with some broth.
✨ Tips & Variations:
-
Extra smoky flavor → Use smoked sausage or add a dash of liquid smoke.
-
Spicy kick → Toss in red pepper flakes or a diced jalapeño.
-
Thicker broth → Stir in a spoonful of cornstarch slurry near the end to make it more stew-like.
