Chorizo Potato Stew Recipes

CHORIZO AND POTATO STEW

Steps:

• Dice the chorizo (1/4 - 1/2 inch).
• Mince the onion and peel the potatoes. Submerge the potatoes in a bowl of water to keep them from browning.
• Put a large heavy bottommed over medium heat. Add the olive oil and heat through.
• Add the onions and cook until beginning to brown (about 10 minutes).
• Add the chorizo, stir, and cook for about 2 minutes.
• Cut the potato into inch sized chunks right over the pot, but only cut half way through. Twist the knife to break off the rest. This leaves a broken edge which releases extra starch into the potato stew, resulting in a richer, thicker broth.
• Add the hot paprika, salt, and the pimenton (aka smoked paprika).
• Cover the contents with water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low heat, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes.

CHORIZO-POTATO STEW

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion, season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and slightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add the chorizo and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned around the edges, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add the potatoes, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until well coated, about 3 more minutes.
• Add the chicken broth, bay leaves and paprika. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to medium and cook 12 minutes. Add the chard; cover and cook, stirring, until the potatoes are tender and the chard is wilted, 3 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Ladle into bowls; top with parsley, drizzle with olive oil and serve with bread.

CHORIZO-COD-POTATO STEW

Steps:

• Preheat a soup pot over med-high heat with the oil.
• Add in the sliced chorizo; cook/stirring frequently, for 2 minutes.
• Add in the potatoes; continue to cook for 2 minutes.
• Add in the onions, carrots, and garlic; season with salt and pepper, and cook/stirring frequently, for 5 minutes.
• Add in the white wine and cook for 3 minutes.
• Add the tomatoes, chicken stock, and red peppers; bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes.
• You want the soup to be at a gently simmer before you add the fish so, if necessary, turn the heat down a little.
• Add in the cod; gently simmer 3-4 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through.
• Finish the soup with the parsley; taste for seasonings and serve.

POTATO, PEPPER & CHORIZO STEW WITH FRIED EGGS

Steps:

• Heat half the oil in a pan with a lid and add the onion and peppers. Fry for 10-15 mins until soft, then add the garlic and chorizo and sizzle until the chorizo releases its oils.
• Add the potatoes and stir for 1 min. Pour over the stock, cover with a lid and simmer for 15 mins, or until the potatoes are tender. Remove the lid and season. Bring to the boil and boil rapidly to reduce until most of the liquid has evaporated.
• Meanwhile, fry the eggs in the remaining oil. Spoon the stew onto bowls, then place a fried egg on top and serve sprinkled with parsley.
