Recipe Introduction
Note: Purists sneer at chili with beans but black beans
give this chili the proper flavor and colour.
List of Ingredients
2 - 2 1/2 lbs. ground turkey
2 cans of black beans (You can soak and cook your own
if you've time.)
1 large Spanish onion chopped coarsely
3 cloves of chopped garlic (I'm not shy about garlic
normally but I didn't want to overwhelm the other flavours)
3/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 green bell pepper, chopped finely
1/2 - 3/4 cup of molasses
2 1/2 oz unsweetened baker's chocolate
1 pint heavy stout
4 dried Anaheim chilis (chopped or processed through a mill)
1 tablespoon ground coriander seeds
2 tablespoons of grocery store variety chili powder
1 1/2 tsp black pepper
salt to taste
1/2 tsp white pepper
1/2 tsp ground sage
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1/3 bottle of "Smokin' Orange" hot sauce (NOTE: this
stuff is VERY HOT.)
Recipe
Brown the turkey lightly in a skillet with a little olive oil.
In a crock pot, combine all the other ingredients except
for the cilantro. Add the turkey, straining out any residual
liquid. Stir careully. Be sure to have enough liquid in the
pot so that the top layer doesn't dry out overnight. Use
stout, not water. (Try using a little tequila too.) Add
the cilantro about 20 minutes before serving time for best
flavor.
Cook on a low setting overnight. Taste in the morning,
adjust your seasonings and enjoy, plain or over rice.
