How to Make Italian Sausage Etouffee
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add 1 pound Italian sausage, removed from casings, and 2 cloves minced garlic. Cook, breaking the sausage into crumbles, until browned, about 8-10 minutes.
- Stir in 1/2 cup sweet pickle relish and cook for 2 minutes until heated through.
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt 4 tablespoons butter with 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add 4 cloves minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Whisk in 1/4 cup all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, to create a roux.
- Gradually whisk in 4 cups chicken broth, 1 cup heavy cream, 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper, 1 teaspoon paprika, 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 cup chopped green onions. Bring to a simmer, then add the cooked sausage and relish. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.
- Serve the etouffee over hot cooked rice. Garnish with extra green onions, if desired.
