Super Bowl Chili

February 4, 2016 by Finite Foodie Leave a Comment

“When Rebecca and Greg were young we often had friends over for Super Bowl. I could hide vegetables in the chili and fool even the pickiest eaters. Of course, I cut back on spices if I knew there were younger kids planning to eat this, even though it’s not all that hot.  Leave out the chipotle peppers and red pepper flakes if you want a very mild version. You can always them later. Remember that the heat intensifies the longer the chili cooks or stands. Don’t let the long list of ingredients scare you; they’re mostly spices. If you have a large pot, double the recipe and freeze the leftovers. We even like it better on the second day! “

Chili is a great catch-all dish. Hide all types of vegetables in it for your picky eaters. Depending on our mood, we make this with ground dark turkey, grass-fed beef, bison or a mixture. This is rated "moderate" for difficulty only because of the numerous ingredients and chopping involved. Otherwise, it's actually very easy. Keep warm and serve in a slow cooker for large parties.

Instructions
  1. Heat a large saucepan over medium heat and add meat. Cook and stir, breaking up clumps until browned. (If using ground turkey, you might need to add a little oil.)
  2. Chop the onion and mince the garlic. Add to the meat and turn heat down to medium-low. Cook and stir occasionally while you continue.
  3. Chop the celery (about 1-1/2 cups) and slice, dice or grate the carrots (about 2 cups), adding and stirring after each one.
  4. Add chili powder and cumin. Cook and stir 1 minute to release the flavors.
  5. Stir in tomatoes. Cover and adjust heat to keep at a simmer while you continue.
  6. Drain and rinse the beans in a colander, then add to the mixture, along with all of the remaining ingredients.
  7. Keep covered and simmer on low about 1 hour or more. The longer it simmers and stands the better it tastes. NOTE: You can also make it the day before and reheat before serving, for better flavor.
  8. Taste and adjust seasonings for a spicier chili if desired. Depending on the amount of salt in the canned tomatoes and beans, you might want to add more at this point.
Recipe Notes

Chef’s Tips: If you’re serving this at a party, transfer it to a slow cooker if you have one and keep on warm. This will free up the stove top. You can double the recipe if you have a larger pot.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS:

  1. Serve with some extra chipotle chilies in adobo sauce on the side for those who really like it hot!
  2. Chili and Potatoes – Serve a scoop of chili on top of a baked potato.
