This fish chowder features a rich tomato broth, hearty potatoes, smoky chorizo, and savory fish that is not only fast, but is sure to be a hit at your table!
Ingredients
- 8 ounces Spanish chorizo (cured sausage), thinly sliced
- 4 leeks (white and light green parts), cut into half-moons
- 1 1/2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes (about 4 medium), cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- 1 28-ounce can diced tomatoes
- kosher salt and black pepper
- 2 pounds skinless firm white fish (such as halibut or cod), cut into 2-inch pieces
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Directions
In a large pot, brown the chorizo over medium-high heat, 1 to 2 minutes.
Add the leeks and cook, stirring occasionally, until beginning to soften, 3 to 4 minutes.
Add the potatoes, tomatoes (with their juices), 3 cups water, ¾ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Cover and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat and simmer until the potatoes are just tender, 10 to 12 minutes.
Add the fish and simmer gently until opaque throughout, 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in the parsley before serving.
*Editor’s Note: Spanish chorizo is smoked pork sausage that’s loaded with seasonings like garlic and chili powder. If you can’t find it in your supermarket, use bacon instead.
