This is a quick and easy chili recipe found on the Food Network. I added a can of drained and rinsed chick peas and a can of corn to the recipe as well. Feel free to garnish with cheddar cheese, chives, sour cream, and serve with tortilla chips if you want to.
You Will Need:
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 1 medium yellow onion, chopped 5 cloves garlic, chopped 1 tablespoon kosher salt 2 teaspoons chili powder 1 teaspoon dried oregano 1 tablespoon tomato paste 1 chipotle chile en adobo, coarsely chopped, with 1 tablespoon sauce 1 pound ground turkey or 12 ounces soy crumbles One 12-ounce Mexican lager- style beer One 14 1/2-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes, with their juice One 15 1/2-ounce can kidney Optional: can of garbanzo beans and can of corn
What to Do:
1. Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, garlic, salt, chili powder, and oregano and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 3 minutes.
2. Stir in the tomato paste and the chipotle chile and sauce; cook 1 minute more.
3. Add the turkey, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, and cook until the meat loses its raw color, about 3 minutes.
4. Add the beer and simmer until reduced by about half, about 8 minutes. Add the tomatoes — crushing them through your fingers into the skillet — along with their juices and the beans; bring to a boil. Cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until thick, about 10 minutes.
5. Add the kidney beans, chick peas, and corn.
6. Ladle the chili into bowls and serve with the garnishes of your choice.
