Description

A comforting soup with rich chorizo and creamy potatoes, perfect for chilly evenings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ounces chorizo
  • 4 cups potatoes (diced)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 bunch fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Sauté the chorizo: In your large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chorizo, breaking it into pieces as it browns. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until it’s crispy.
  2. Add the potatoes: Toss in the diced potatoes, stirring to coat them in the chorizo remnants.
  3. Pour in the broth: Carefully add the chicken broth, ensuring all the potatoes are submerged. Debate simmering for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
  4. Incorporate the cream: Stir in the heavy cream, and allow it to simmer uncovered for an additional 5-10 minutes.
  5. Final touches: Season with salt and pepper as needed. Mix in your freshly chopped parsley right before serving.

Notes

This soup freezes beautifully, making it a great make-ahead meal.
