Prep Time 15 mins
Cook Time 1 hr
Total Time 1 hr 15 mins
Servings 6

Ingredients
  

  • 1 yellow or white onion chopped
  • 2 large carrots diced
  • 2 large ribs celery diced
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 lb brown or green dry lentils rinsed
  • 3 cups water
  • 3 cups GF chicken stock
  • 1/2 tsp thyme
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1/2 pound GF Italian sausage
  • 1 tsp sherry vinegar or cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley chopped

Instructions
 

  • In a saucepan sauté the carrots, onions, celery, and cumin. Stirring frequently, scraping up the browned bits at the bottom of the pan, cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook a minute more, until fragrant.
  • Add in the rinsed lentils, stock, water, thyme, bay leaf, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook partially covered until lentils are tender, about 40 minutes.
  • While the lentils are cooking, heat a frying pan on medium heat. Add the Italian sausage links. Gently cook, browning on all sides, until just cooked through.
  • Remove from pan, let cool enough to handle. Cut into pieces of desired length (1 to 2 inches, or you can just keep whole) and add to stew for the last 10 minutes of cooking.
  • Add sherry vinegar and parsley to stew. Add more salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
