Ingredients

– 4 large russet potatoes, peeled and diced
– 1 medium onion, chopped
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 red bell pepper, chopped
– 1 green bell pepper, chopped
– 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
– 1 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
– 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)
– 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional, for topping)

Instructions

Follow these easy steps to create your own Cajun Potato Soup:

1. Heat Olive Oil: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
2. Sauté Vegetables: Add the chopped onion, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper to the pot. Cook until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.
3. Add Garlic: Stir in the minced garlic and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
4. Add Potatoes and Broth: Add the diced potatoes to the pot, followed by the chicken or vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.
5. Season: Once boiling, add the Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
6. Simmer: Reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Allow the soup to simmer for about 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
7. Blend (Optional): For a creamier texture, use an immersion blender to puree part of the soup, leaving some chunks for added texture. If you prefer a chunkier soup, skip this step.
8. Add Cream: Stir in the heavy cream and heat through, about 5 minutes.
9. Adjust Seasoning: Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning if needed.
10. Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with chopped green onions and shredded cheddar cheese if desired.

These straightforward steps will help you create an incredible bowl of Cajun Potato Soup quickly and efficiently.
