Ingredients
12 to 16 Ounces smoked sausage
1 Cup chopped yellow onion
1/2 Teaspoon salt
1/4 Teaspoon cayenne
4 Whole garlic cloves
5 Sprigs of fresh thyme
4 Bay leaves
3 Teaspoons finely chopped Italian parsley
8 Cups chicken stock
1 Pound dried black-eyed peas, rinsed & drained
1 Tablespoon minced garlic
Minced green onions, to garnish (optional)
Instructions
Slice the sausage and cook it in a large pot over medium heat to render some of the fat. (Mine didn�t yield much.)
Add the onions, salt, cayenne, whole garlic cloves, bay leaves, thyme, and parsley to the pan, cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes, until the onion begins to soften.
Add the chicken stock, black-eyed peas, and minced garlic.
Bring to a boil, and simmer, covered for about 1 � hours, until the peas are tender. Serve garnished with green onions, if desired.
