Instructions
Step 1: Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan or small pot over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook for 3 minutes, or until golden.

Step 2: Add the garlic, thyme, paprika, and bay leaf. Stir for 1 minute.
Step 3: Add the tomato, chickpeas, chicken stock, salt, and pepper. Stir and bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to medium-low so the stew simmers very gently.
Step 4: Cook uncovered for 15 minutes, stirring regularly so the base does not catch, until the sauce has reduced and thickened.

Step 5: Discard the bay leaf and serve. Crusty bread is a good accompaniment.
Notes
Other smoked sausages can stand in for the chorizo. Vegetable stock also works in place of chicken stock, though chicken stock gives the sauce a deeper flavor.
Leftovers keep for 3 to 4 days in the refrigerator or 3 months in the freezer.
