Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon pure olive oil
- 1 onion chopped
- 4 Yukon gold potatoes cubed
- 6 garlic thinly sliced
- 2 quarts reduced fat low sodium chicken stock
- 1 tablespoon freshly picked thyme leaves
- Coarse kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a pot over medium high heat. Add the onion and cook until clear and translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the potato, garlic, and stock. Bring to a boil and reduce the heat to simmer. Season with salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat for about 20 minutes until the potatoes are tender. Or, reduce heat to very low and simmer until tender, about 1 hour. Add thyme and stir to combine. Let simmer for a few minutes to let the thyme perfume the broth. Taste and adjust for seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
