This is a soup that's especially nice for cold, wet days. It's like a chowder, but the inspiration is Iberian, modeled after Portuguese or Spanish potato soups enriched with salt cod. Smoked sablefish gives the broth a marvelous flavor, but smoked whitefish, cod, haddock, sturgeon or even smoked trout could be used.

Steps:
- Put olive oil in a heavy-bottomed soup pot over medium-high heat. Add onions, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until softened and beginning to brown, about 5 minutes.
- Add chorizo and potatoes and stir to coat, then cook for 5 minutes, stirring. Add bay leaf and broth and bring to a boil, then lower heat to a simmer. When potatoes are nearly tender, about 10 minutes, add leeks and cook for 5 minutes more. Taste broth and add salt as necessary.
- Add smoked sable and piquillo peppers and simmer for 10 minutes, then turn off heat to let flavors mingle.
- Reheat soup to serve, adding chopped cilantro at the last minute. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing into bowls at the table.
