Polenta and Sausage Soup Recipe

Polenta and Sausage Soup Recipe

  • 3/4 pound Safeway SELECT Mild Italian Sausage
  • 3 1/2 cups chicken broth
  • 3/4 cup polenta or yellow cornmeal
  • 3 ounces Safeway SELECT Primo Taglio Smoked Fontina Cheese, thinly sliced
  • Fresh basil leaves (optional)
  • Fresh-ground pepper (optional)
  1. Remove sausage casings and discard. Crumble sausage into a 4- to 5-quart pan over medium heat and stir often until well browned, about 20 minutes. Pour off and discard any drippings in pan.
  2. Add broth, 2 cups water, and the polenta to pan. Bring mixture to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat and simmer, stirring often, until polenta is creamy to bite, 7 to 10 minutes.
  3. Ladle soup into 4 bowls; top equally with cheese, then basil and pepper, if desired.
