Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat; cook sausage slices in hot oil until lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Add onion, reduce heat to medium, and cook until onion becomes translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add broth, crushed tomatoes, and jalapeño pepper; stir to combine.
Step 2
Bring mixture to a simmer; stir in squash and potatoes gently. Reduce heat to medium-low. Season with salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
Step 3
Simmer stew, uncovered, until potatoes and squash are tender, 30 to 35 minutes. Stir in parsley. Adjust levels of salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper if needed. Serve in bowls; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
