Loaded with vegetables, this spicy soup is infused with flavor from the Chourico sausage--only 5 ingredients.
 

Ingredients

  • 1 lb Portuguese style Chourico sausage
  • 49 oz can chicken broth
  • 1/2 head cabbage
  • 4 medium potatoes
  • 3 large onions
 
Method

Place broth in large saucepan on high heat. Slice the sausage into 1/8" slices and place in broth and bring to a boil. Turn heat down so broth is slowly simmering and cover. Coarsely chop onions and add to soup. Slice cabbage until coarsely shredded and add. Simmer for 15 minutes. Peel potatoes and cut into 1" cubes or smaller; add to pot. Continue to simmer on low heat for another 30 minutes until vegetables are tender and the sausage flavor has permeated the broth. There is no need to season the soup as the flavor of the sausage will do this for you. Serve with hard Portuguese buns or crusty bread.

 

Notes: The secret to this soup lies in the seasonings of the chourico. Always better the second day. I am including a link to acquire the proper sausage. (www.amarals.com) I am not affiliated with this company in any way, it?s just my favorite brand.
