Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 yellow onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 ounces Spanish chorizo, casing removed and chopped
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 6 cups chicken broth
  • 1 1/2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
  2. Add chorizo, smoked paprika, and oregano to the pot. Cook, breaking up the chorizo with a spoon, until browned, about 5 minutes.
  3. Pour in chicken broth and add potatoes and diced tomatoes. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
  4. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  5. Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

For a creamier soup, you can blend a portion of the soup with an immersion blender before serving. A squeeze of lemon juice adds a nice brightness.
