List of Ingredients
For the Chili
1 tablespoon oil
3/4 lb. beef sirloin cut into 1-inch
1 cup chopped onions
1 medium green bell pepper seeded and chopped
2 garlic cloves crushed
2 cans Italian plum tomatoes 28-oz. undrained cut-up
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon Liquid Smoke
1/2 teaspoon pepper
Topping
1 avocado peeled pitted and chopped
1 teaspoon lime juice
1/2 cup sour cream Recipe
In a big pot in a little olive oil, fry up the following: 1 red bell pepper, diced, 1 green bell pepper, diced, 1 small onion, diced, 3 (or more) cloves garlic, diced. When softened, add 1 to 1.5 lbs ground turkey. Brown in all up.
Add 3 Chipotles (smoked jalapenos) reconstituted, seeded, and minced, 0.5 to 1 oz unsweetened chocolate (a vital ingredient), 2 stalks celery, chopped up, 8 oz canned kidney beans, 16 oz canned crushed tomatoes. Cook for at least an hour over low heat. Refrigerate overnight.
Reheat the next day and add 8 oz sour cream (I used low fat). This smooths out the sauce and enhances the flavor but kills the heat. So, adjust heat to personal preference level with chiles of choice. I added about 1 Tb dried, crushed red pequino powder. Serve over rice if you want. Serves 8
