Description

A comforting and creamy potato soup featuring smoky chorizo, perfect for chilly evenings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb chorizo, casings removed
  • 4 medium potatoes, diced
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a large pot over medium heat, cook the chorizo, breaking it apart with a spatula until golden and crispy. Remove it from the pot and set aside.
  2. Add the chopped onions and minced garlic to the same pot. Sauté until fragrant, about 3 minutes.
  3. Toss in the diced potatoes and pour in the chicken or vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  4. Reduce heat and let the soup simmer, uncovered, until the potatoes are tender, approximately 15 minutes.
  5. Stir in the heavy cream and return the crispy chorizo to the pot.
  6. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Ladle into bowls and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

For a lighter version, substitute turkey chorizo. For a vegan option, use plant-based sausage and dairy-free cream.
