Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add pork and cook until lightly browned on all sides. Stir in garlic and onion. Continue to cook until onion softens and pork is no longer pink, about 5 minutes.

Step 2

Add chicken broth, salt, rosemary, sage, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Cover, and simmer for 20 minutes.

Step 3

Add squash, apples, potatoes, and carrots. Return to a simmer. Cook, uncovered, until squash and apples are tender, about 20 minutes. Remove and discard bay leaf, and serve.
