Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add sliced kielbasa and cook until browned, about 4–5 minutes. Remove and set aside.
In the same pot, add onion and garlic and sauté until fragrant and soft, about 3 minutes.
Add potatoes, carrots, chicken broth, thyme (if using), salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15–20 minutes until vegetables are tender.
Stir in milk and sour cream. Return kielbasa to the pot and cook for another 5 minutes to heat through.
Adjust seasoning if needed. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm.

Notes

Use smoked kielbasa for extra flavor.
You can substitute heavy cream for milk for a richer soup.
This soup pairs well with crusty bread for a complete meal.
