Pork Albondigas

Pork Albondigas combines juicy ground pork meatballs with a flavorful broth filled with fresh vegetables and tender potatoes. The meatballs are made with ground pork, jasmine rice, egg, diced tomato, onion, crushed garlic, and dried oregano, creating a savory, herbaceous flavor with a tender texture. As the meatballs simmer in the chicken broth, they absorb the soup's rich flavors, and the rice gives them their signature texture. A blend of mirepoix—onion, carrots, and celery—builds a delicious aromatic base, while baby potatoes and fresh zucchini add heartiness, color, and freshness to every bowl.

Fresh oregano and a touch of olive oil deepen the broth's savory character and tie together the pork, vegetables, and comforting chicken stock. For those who like a little heat, add El Pato jalapeño tomato sauce for a spicier broth with bright tomato flavor and a gentle kick. Whether served as a warming lunch or a satisfying dinner, this rustic soup delivers a wonderful balance of tender meatballs, nourishing vegetables, and bold, comforting flavor in every spoonful.
