Creamy Chorizo and Chicken Soup image

Spicy sausage and tender chicken make a tasty pair in this creamy soup. Packed with tons of flavor and so simple to make! Searing is the trick for tender chicken. Be sure to sprinkle parmesan on top before serving, it definitely adds a little sumthin' sumthin'!

Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
4 skinless boneless chicken breasts, cut into 2-inch cubes
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon garlic salt
black pepper to taste
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ pound chorizo sausage, casings removed
4 cups chicken stock
1 (14.5 ounce) can Mexican-style stewed tomatoes
1 cup heavy cream
salt to taste
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
¼ cup sour cream, for topping

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large pot over high heat, then add the butter. Stir in chicken and season with Worcestershire sauce, garlic salt, and pepper. Cook the chicken breasts until no longer pink in the center, then stir in the garlic. Place chicken onto a plate and set aside.
  • Cook the chorizo until it becomes a dark golden brown, breaking up the large pieces, using the same pot over medium-high heat. Stir in the chicken stock, tomatoes, and reserved chicken with juices. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 20 minutes. Stir in heavy cream and simmer for another 5 minutes. Season with salt. Serve soup garnished with Monterey Jack cheese, Parmesan cheese, and a dollop of sour cream.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover chicken. It's also a very affordable meal to make.

I wasn't impressed with this soup. The flavors were bland and the broth was too thin.

This soup was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. I'll probably make it again and use less chorizo next time.
