Sweet Potato & Sausage Stew image

This is an unusual combination, but my family really loved it and it became a "comfort food" overnight. The FRESH rosemary makes the difference. I haven't tried the recipe with dried rosemary. I had bought some fresh at the store recently and decided to try new things using it; that's how this recipe was born.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 large sweet potatoes, fresh
4 slice bacon, chopped
8 oz turkey breakfast sausage, crumbled
1 medium onion, chopped
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 Tbsp butter
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
2 clove garlic, minced
1 Tbsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped
1 1/2 c chicken or vegetable stock

Steps:

  • 1. Use a very large skillet. Peel and dice the sweet potatoes (about 1/2-inch dice). Chop the bacon and crumble the sausage. Dice the onion and mince the garlic.
  • 2. Cook the bacon, sausage and onion in the olive oil over medium high heat until bacon begins to crisp and sausage is cooked.
  • 3. Add the butter and the sweet potatoes. Saute the sweet potatoes until they are slightly browned in the butter, but do not let the butter get too brown or burn.
  • 4. Stir in the salt, pepper, garlic, rosemary, and chicken stock. Combine well, cover, and simmer about 15-20 minutes or until sweet potatoes are done to your liking. Taste for seasoning before serving.
