    Source of Recipe


    Carroll Shelbys Chili

    List of Ingredients




    1/2 cup each dried black, red kidney, garbanzo and white navy beans, soaked in water overnight
    12 ounces bacon, sliced and diced
    2 large onions, minced
    6 cloves garlic, minced
    2 red bell peppers, diced
    1 package Carroll Shelby's Chili Kit
    1 cup dry red wine
    2 14-ounce cans tomatoes packed in puree
    1 cup fresh parsley, minced


    Recipe



    Rinse and drain soaked beans. Place in a large pot and cover with fresh water. Bring to a boil, skimming off any fat that rises to the surface. Simmer beans until tender, 1 to 1-1/2 hours. Meanwhile, fry bacon in a large pot until crisp; drain. Add onions, garlic and peppers to bacon fat; sauté 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in large Spice Packet from Carroll Shelby's Chili Kit and cook 2 minutes more. For hotter chili, add cayenne pepper (Small Red Packet) to Taste. Add wine, tomatoes and salt. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for 30 to 45 minutes. When beans are tender, drain and add to chili. Simmer 10 to 15 minutes more. Stir in parsley and reserved bacon and cook 5 minutes. Serve hot. Makes 8 to 10 servings. Note: This recipe can be easily made vegetarian by omitting bacon and adding 2 cups of sliced, sautéed mushrooms.
