This hearty sausage potato soup is the perfect comfort food for a chilly evening. It's packed with flavorful sausage, tender potatoes, and a creamy broth that will warm you from the inside out.
In a large pot or Dutch oven, brown the sausage over medium-high heat. Remove the sausage and set aside.
Add the onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
Add the chicken broth, potatoes, thyme, salt, and pepper to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Return the sausage to the pot. Stir in the heavy cream and heat through.
Serve hot and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
