Picadillo soup
Explanation:
Followed by an explanation - anything else would be far too lengthy.

A clear soup containing mince (doesn't sound v appetizing but probably our best bet)

Technically, soup with (minced) chorizo meat.

Not to be confused with peccadillo soup!

btw, I wonder how common this is outside Spain. My children had it last time we went to a restaurant here in Avila.
