Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium-sized potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 8 oz Spanish chorizo sausage, sliced
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Follow these simple steps to create your Creamy Potato and Spanish Chorizo Soup:

  1. Sauté Chorizo: In a large pot over medium heat, add the sliced Spanish chorizo. Cook until golden and slightly crispy, about 5 minutes. Remove the chorizo from the pot and set aside, leaving the drippings.
  2. Cook Onions and Garlic: Add the chopped onion to the same pot. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until it becomes translucent. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  3. Add Potatoes: Stir in the diced potatoes, mixing well with the onions and garlic.
  4. Pour in Chicken Broth: Add the chicken broth to the pot, bringing everything to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer until the potatoes are tender, approximately 15-20 minutes.
  5. Blend the Soup: Once the potatoes are soft, use an immersion blender to puree the soup until it reaches a creamy consistency. You can also transfer the mixture to a blender, but be careful with the hot liquid.
  6. Stir in Cream: Return the pureed soup to the pot, and stir in the heavy cream for added richness. Heat gently, but do not boil.
  7. Add Chorizo: Finally, stir in the crispy chorizo pieces. Season with salt and pepper to your taste.
  8. Simmer and Serve: Allow the soup to simmer for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

The steps are easy to follow, ensuring that you can whip up this fantastic soup effortlessly.
