Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound kielbasa sausage (sliced)
1 medium yellow onion (diced)
2 medium carrots (diced)
2 stalks celery (diced)
4 cups chicken broth
3 large russet potatoes (diced)
1/2 cup heavy cream
Salt and black pepper to taste
Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add sliced kielbasa and cook until lightly browned (5-7 minutes). Remove and set aside.
Add diced onion, carrots, and celery to the pot. Sauté until softened (5-7 minutes).
Pour in chicken broth and add diced potatoes. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until potatoes are tender (15-20 minutes).
Return kielbasa to the pot. Stir in heavy cream, salt, and black pepper; heat through for 2-3 minutes without boiling.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.

Notes

For extra flavor, consider adding garlic or your favorite herbs like thyme or dill. You can substitute heavy cream with half-and-half for a lighter version or use turkey kielbasa for a healthier alternative.
