Super creamy and filling, this Cajun style creamy gluten free potato soup has south Louisiana seasonings for optimal flavor and sausage for the perfect stick-to-your-ribs soup for six.
Melt butter or oil in a 6-quart enameled cast iron Dutch oven over medium heat.
Cook the Cajun trinity of chopped onion, bell pepper and celery in the skillet for about 7 minutes, or until the veggies start to get soft and begin to brown.
Add the sausage to the pan and continue to brown the veggies and sausage for about 5 more minutes, or until the meat and veggies are further browned.
Pour the chopped potatoes into the skillet, and cover with the hot sauce, parsley flakes, onion powder and paprika.
Stir the mixture until very well-combined.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet, and cook for one additional minute.
Sprinkle the tapioca flour onto the mixture, then stir until all of the gluten free potato soup contents are well-incorporated.
Increase heat to medium-high.
Pour the gluten free chicken broth into the skillet.
Let mixture come to a boil.
Cook for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring often, or until the potatoes are tender.
Reduce heat to medium-low.
Add the milk, pepper Jack cheese and cheddar cheese.
Cook for an additional five minutes, stirring often to ensure that the cheeses are fully incorporated into the soup.
Remove from heat to prevent curdling.
Serve immediately.
Notes
The soup thickens as it stands. When reheating, add extra milk or gluten free chicken broth to thin it out a bit, if desired.
