One Pot Chorizo, Chickpea and Sweet Potato Stew
Description
The One Pot Chorizo, Chickpea and Sweet Potato Stew starts with sautéing diced red onion and sliced chorizo to build a savory base. Garlic, smoked paprika, and chili flakes provide smoky and spicy notes. Adding sweet potato chunks, canned chopped tomatoes, chickpeas, and water creates a stew that simmers until the sweet potatoes are tender.
The addition of baby spinach at the end softens slightly to add freshness and color. This stew can be served on its own or with bread or rice, making it a filling meal. The slow simmering melds spices and ingredients into a rich, cohesive stew with tender textures and layered seasoning.
