Recipe View 1 mins Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley (optional).

For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken broth. You can also add a splash of dry red wine to the stew along with the crushed tomatoes.
If you prefer a thicker stew, mash some of the potatoes against the side of the pot before adding the green beans.
Chourico can be quite spicy, so adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to your liking. You can also use a milder chorizo if desired.
This stew is even better the next day, as the flavors have had more time to develop.
