Ingredients
1 pound Italian turkey sausage, casings removed
1 pound baby potatoes, halved
1 medium yellow onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the Italian turkey sausage, breaking it apart with a spatula, and cook until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil.
Add the halved baby potatoes and diced onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden and tender, about 12-15 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and dried Italian seasoning to the skillet and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Return the cooked sausage to the skillet and stir to combine.
Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the potatoes to soften further.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese until the cheese melts and the sauce becomes creamy.
Season with salt and black pepper. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
Remove from heat and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
