HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

02

Add the sliced Spanish chorizo to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and crispy. Remove the chorizo with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving the rendered fat in the skillet.

03

Add the chopped yellow onion to the skillet and cook for 3-5 minutes over medium heat until softened and translucent.

04

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

05

Add the cubed Yukon Gold potatoes, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine, ensuring the potatoes are evenly coated.

06

Reduce heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.

07

Return the cooked chorizo to the skillet and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to heat through.

08

Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.

Chef's Tips

For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of saffron threads soaked in a tablespoon of warm water along with the potatoes. Ensure your skillet has a tight-fitting lid to help steam the potatoes evenly.

Easy Substitutions

If Spanish chorizo is unavailable, you can use another type of smoked sausage, though the flavor profile will change. Sweet potatoes can be used instead of Yukon Gold for a different taste and texture. For a vegetarian option, omit the chorizo and add a can of drained chickpeas along with the potatoes.
