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.

SAUTEED POTATOES WITH CHORIZO

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook, breaking up the clumps, until dry and crisp, about 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the chorizo to a paper lined plate to absorb any additional oil. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of fat from the pan and heat the pan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and boiled potatoes and saute until brown, about 12 minutes. Stir in the cooked chorizo and season with just a little salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve.

CHORIZO-COD-POTATO STEW

Steps:

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