Number Of Ingredients 18

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 medium onion, chopped
1 medium fennel bulb, thinly sliced
2 cups spinach, baby leaves
2 small zucchini, cubed
1 medium sweet red pepper, chopped
6 cups chicken broth
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 teaspoons thyme, preferably fresh
1 teaspoon oregano, preferably fresh
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon chipotle pepper
1 teaspoon basil
1 lb lean Italian turkey sausage link, cut into quarters
1/4 cup water

Steps:

Saute olive oil, garlic, onions, and fennel in a large pot over medium high heat for 3-4 minutes. In a separate small skillet, cook the sausage links by browning them first on medium heat and then adding the water and covering for approximately 5-7 minutes.
Once the onions, garlic, and fennel are aromatic and translucent, add the rest of the ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, partly covered, for about 10-15 minutes.
