Reduce heat to medium-low. Gently boil for 28 to 32 minutes, or until
reduced by half. Remove bay leaves and parsley.

boil. Remove from heat.
9. Place saucepot under broiler for 4 to 5 minutes, or until a deep brown
crust forms on top.
RECIPE NOTE:
Look for chicken sausage that is nitrate-free, has less than 8 grams of fat
per link, and is free-range.
