👨‍🍳 Instructions

In a 5 to 6-quart pan over high heat, combine onion, carrots, bell pepper, garlic and 1/2 cup water.

Stir often until browned bits stick in pan.

Add another 1/2 cup water. Scrape browned bits free and boil until vegetables begin to brown. Repeat 1 or 2 more times, until vegetables are richly browned.

Add tomatoes, broth, wine, thyme, bay leaf, pepper and liquid pepper. Simmer, covered, for 45 minutes to blend flavors.

Add beans and simmer, uncovered, 10 minutes.

Add chicken and sausage. Simmer gently until chicken pieces are white in the center (cut to test), about 10 minutes. Ladle into bowls; add salt to taste.

Serves 6 to 8.
