Ingredients

• 4 links bratwurst sausage
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 medium yellow onion
• 2 cloves garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add vegetable oil.

Step 2

Place the bratwurst sausages in the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides. Remove the bratwurst and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion, diced finely, and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened and translucent.

Step 4

Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the skillet. Cook for an additional minute, stirring frequently to prevent burning.

Step 5

Sprinkle the flour over the onion and garlic mixture. Stir constantly for 1-2 minutes to cook out the raw flour taste.

Step 6

Gradually pour in the chicken broth while whisking to avoid lumps. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and let it thicken slightly.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper.

Step 8

Return the bratwurst to the skillet. Cover and simmer for 10-12 minutes, allowing the sausages to heat through and the flavors to meld.

Step 9

Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the top.

Step 10

Serve hot with mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or crusty bread. Enjoy!
