Instructions
- Heat a large dutch oven or stock pot to a medium-high heat. Add chorizo and onion. Cook until chorizo is browned and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Add potatoes, toss with a wooden spoon and cook until slightly softened, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add chicken stock and salt. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Simmer until potatoes are cooked through, about 10-12 minutes. (If using kale, add after the soup has simmered for 8 minutes.) Add corn, simmer another minute. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with chopped parsley and cojita cheese.
