Ang's Creamy Tortellini Soup

Ingredients

  1. 1 lb. ground mild Italian sausage
  2. 1 small yellow onion, diced
  3. 2 celery stalks, diced
  4. 2 large carrots, peeled and diced
  5. 3 garlic cloves, minced
  6. 1 teaspoon kosher sea salt
  7. 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  8. 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  9. 1 teaspoon fennel seed, crushed or chopped
  10. one 6-oz. can tomato paste
  11. 1/2 cup dry white wine
  12. ½  cup all-purpose flour
  13. 6-7 cups chicken broth
  14. 14 oz. refrigerated cheese tortellini
  15. 2 cups half and half or heavy cream
  16. 1 handful chopped fresh spinach
  17. Parmesan and fresh parsley for serving

Instructions

  1. In a large stockpot set over medium-high, cook the sausage, breaking up into little pieces. When sausage is mostly browned, add onion, celery and carrot, sauté for 5 minutes or until the vegetables are soft.
  2. Add the garlic, spices, and tomato paste; sauté for an additional 3-5 minutes, or until fragrant, stirring occasionally to prevent it from burning.
  3. Add wine and let it cook out for a few minutes. Stir the flour into the sausage and cook for 1 minute. It’ll be sticky and dry. Gradually add in the chicken broth, stir to combine. Continue cooking until the mixture reaches a simmer, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes.
  4. Add the cream, then bring it to a low simmer. Add the tortellini and spinach. Cook just until tortellini is al dente, per package directions. Serve with fresh parsley and Parmesan and dunk with cheese bread! Oh my goodness. This is living.
