    List of Ingredients




    Serving Size : 4

    2 teaspoons corn oil
    1/2 teaspoon cumin
    1/2 cup chopped onion
    1 medium green bell pepper -- chopped
    1 1/2 cups chopped tomatoes
    8 ounces kidney beans -- cooked and drained
    1 teaspoon chili powder
    3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
    1/2 teaspoon salt

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 375F. Spray 8 inch square pan with nonstick cooking spray.

    To prepare chili, place large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat 30 seconds. Add oil; heat 30 seconds more. Add cumin and cook, stirring constantly, just until fragrant, about 30 seconds (do not burn). Stir in onion and green bell pepper; cook, stirring often, until tender, 4-5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, beans and chili powder; cook 5 minutes. Spread mixture evenly into prepared pan and set aside (may be done ahead up to this point.)

    To prepare cornmeal topping, bring 2 cups water to a boil. Gradually add cornmeal in a thin stream, whisking constantly to prevent lumps. When all cornmeal is added, stir in salt; continue cooking, whisking constantly, until thickened to the consistency of mashed potatoes, about 3 minutes. Immediately spread mixture evenly over chili in pan and bake until chili mixture bubbles, about 15 minutes.
