This hearty and delicious one-pot meal is a step up from your typical chicken soup thanks to the addition of smoky chorizo. The soup comes together in under an hour, which makes it a perfect comforting dinner for weeknights when you don't have a ton of time. If you prefer, you can use chopped plum tomatoes in place of canned during peak season. Ladle soup into bowls, add your favorite hot sauce and garnish with queso fresco or shredded Cheddar cheese to serve.

Mealthy Tip

Mexican chorizo with the Spanish version are very different. The Spanish version is cured with a different mix of spices and stored at room temperature. Mexican chorizo contains raw pork, and needs to be refrigerated. Look for at at your local butcher shop if you can't find it at the supermarket.
