  4. Add cubed Yukon Gold potatoes and pour in enough chicken broth to cover. Increase heat to bring to a boil.
  5. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low and let soup simmer for 20-25 minutes until potatoes are tender.
  6. Return cooked chorizo to the pot and stir in heavy cream, simmering for another 5 minutes.
  7. Ladle soup into bowls, garnish with parsley, and serve with warm, crusty bread.
