Ingredients
- 6 pieces pork sausages
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large, sliced yellow onion
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 2 chopped celery stalks
- 1 medium, diced carrot
- 250 milliliters dry white wine
- 250 milliliters chicken stock
- 4 sprigs fresh thyme
- 1 leaf bay leaf
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon, chopped parsley
Directions
Step 1
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat.
Step 2
Add the sausages and brown them on all sides. This should take about 5–7 minutes. Remove the sausages and set them aside.
Step 3
In the same pan, add the sliced onion, minced garlic, chopped celery, and diced carrot. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften and start to caramelize.
Step 4
Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for 2–3 minutes, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan for added flavor.
Step 5
Return the sausages to the pan, then pour in the chicken stock.
Step 6
Add the thyme sprigs, bay leaf, salt, and black pepper. Stir gently to combine.
Step 7
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pan with a lid and let the sausages braise for 35–40 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 8
Remove the lid for the final 5 minutes of cooking to allow the sauce to slightly reduce.
Step 9
Discard the thyme sprigs and bay leaf before serving. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Step 10
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot with your choice of sides, such as crusty bread or mashed potatoes.
