Step 1
Start by heating a Dutch oven over medium heat and cook the sausage until it’s nicely browned, about 10 to 12 minutes. Toss in the chopped onion and garlic, stirring now and then, and cook until the onion becomes soft and fragrant, around 4 to 5 minutes. Next, add the rest of the ingredients except for the Parmesan cheese. Turn the heat down to low and let everything simmer gently for 12 to 15 minutes so the flavors can come together. When you’re ready to serve, ladle the soup into bowls and sprinkle a tablespoon of Parmesan on top. If you have any leftovers, just pop them in the fridge for later.
Why you’ll love it
This soup is full of bold flavors and comforting warmth. The spicy chorizo adds a rich, smoky taste that pairs perfectly with the hearty rice and beans. It’s easy to make and satisfying on chilly days or whenever you crave something filling and tasty.
How to serve
Serve with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime for a bright, fresh contrast. Add a dollop of sour cream or shredded cheese on top to balance the spice. Warm tortillas or crusty bread make great sides to soak up the delicious broth.
Storage & leftovers
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. The flavors often deepen after a day. You can also freeze the soup for up to 2 months—just thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating gently on the stove.
