Ingredients
- 3 tbsp Olive Oil
- 3 cups Red Potatoes, cubed and peeled
- 3 cups Chicken Stock
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup Cream Cheese {you can use a little more if you want}
- Salt and pepper if desired
- Optional: serve with keilbasa sausage, green onions and bread
Instructions
- In a large pot over medium heat, saute the potatoes in the olive oil until the potatoes start to brown a little. Throw in the garlic and stir for another minute.
- Add the chicken stock and lower heat. Allow it to simmer for 30 or 40 minutes until potatoes are tender.
- With a potato masher, smash the potatoes inside the pot. This helps release the starch and make it thicker. You want the soup to remain chunky so don't smash too much.
- Add the cream cheese and whisk until it melts.
- Add salt and pepper to preference
- Serve with diced Keilbasa sausage, green onions and a slice of bread!
