Açorda Alentejana is a cozy Portuguese soup featuring a base of garlic, chicken broth, and chickpeas. It includes a bright and refreshing puree made of cilantro, jalapeno, smoked paprika, Parmesan, and lemon, stirred in just before serving. The soup is topped with toasted bread and a soft boiled egg for added richness. A touch of ditalini adds extra substance, making it perfect for the soup season.
