Recipe Introduction


The black bean chili from Lynn's can be eaten from a bowl or wrapped in a tortilla. It can be part of a breakfast burrito or a topping for a baked potato or spaghetti. Maybe you can get creative and come up with other uses.



List of Ingredients




1½ tablespoons olive oil
¾ cup diced yellow onion
½ cup diced green bell pepper (about half a medium pepper)
1 minced fresh jalapeno, seeded (see below)
½ teaspoon minced garlic
3 tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
15-ounce can crushed tomatoes
4 16-ounce cans black beans, undrained

4-ounce can diced green chilies, undrained
Tabasco sauce to taste (optional)

Garnishes:

Sour cream
Shredded cheddar cheese
Diced red onion

Recipe



Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven or other wide, deep pot set over medium heat. Add onion, green bell pepper, jalapeno and garlic. Cook until onions begin to soften, about 3 minutes.

Add chili powder, salt, cumin, coriander, cayenne pepper, crushed tomatoes, black beans and diced green chilies. Stir well.

Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, covered, about 15 minutes. Taste for seasonings. Add more pepper or Tabasco if you'd like it hotter. If chili is sticking, or you'd like it thinner, add ½ cup water while cooking.

To serve: This makes an excellent breakfast burrito when mixed with scrambled eggs, wrapped in a flour tortilla and served with salsa. Or it can be eaten by the bowl. The restaurant employees recommend serving the chili garnished with sour cream, cheddar cheese and red onion.

Serves 8.
