This hearty salad transforms the classic combination of smoky chorizo and eggs into a warm, filling meal perfect for lunch. Tender baby potatoes absorb the paprika-infused oil released by the chorizo, while the soft-boiled yolk creates a rich, creamy finish.
Place the potatoes in a pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook for 12-15 minutes until tender, then drain and set aside.
While potatoes cook, bring a separate small pot of water to a boil. Carefully lower the eggs in and cook for exactly 6 minutes and 30 seconds for a soft center. Transfer immediately to a bowl of ice water to stop cooking, then peel and halve.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced chorizo and cook for 4-5 minutes until crispy and the red oil has released.
Remove the chorizo with a slotted spoon, leaving the flavorful oil in the pan. Add the boiled potatoes to the pan and toss in the chorizo oil for 2-3 minutes to warm through and coat them.
Remove the pan from heat. Whisk the vinegar and olive oil into the warm pan juices to create a dressing.
Assemble the salad by placing spinach on plates, topped with the warm potatoes, crispy chorizo, red onion, and soft-boiled eggs.
Drizzle the warm dressing from the pan over the entire salad and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
