Ingredients
– 1 pound smoked kielbasa, sliced

– 2 cups frozen corn
– 2 cups chicken broth
– 2 sticks celery, sliced
– 1 cup diced onions

Instructions
1. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced kielbasa and cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pot and set aside.
