Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a large Dutch oven or pot, lightly brown the diced sausage in olive oil. You don’t want it crispy or too browned.
  • Add butter, onions, celery, radishes, and garlic to the pot and sauté for approx 10 min on medium heat.
  • Add 1/2 chicken broth and deglaze the bottom of the pot if needed. Then add the rest of the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Turn down to medium/low and simmer for 10 minutes with the top or until radishes are tender.
  • Pour in heavy whipping cream and add spices.
  • Next, add the xanthan gum to a tablespoon of water, stir, and add to the soup. Simmer for 10 min with the top on so the soup can thicken.
  • Turn off the stove and slowly whisk in all the cheese, a handful at a time. Make sure to whisk it slowly and don’t add it all at once, or it will curdle.
  • Continue stirring until everything is combined. If you’d like it thicker, let it sit for another 5-10 min with the top off, and it will continue to thicken.
  • Enjoy! Serve and garnish with extra shredded cheese and parsley.
