Chipotlekissedredbeanandsweetpotatochili Recipes

Steps:

• Toss 1 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes(cut into 1-inch pieces) with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon each chili powder and kosher salt and a few grinds of pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and bake at 450 degrees F, stirring halfway through, until crisp, 35 to 45 minutes. Puree 1/4 cup warm water, 1 minced garlic clove, the juice of 1 lime, 2/3 cup cilantro, 3 tablespoons sunflower seed butter and 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt in a blender. Serve with the potatoes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
• Combine sweet potatoes, chipotle pepper, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large bowl and toss to coat. Spread sweet potatoes on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
• Roast sweet potatoes in the preheated oven until the outside is crunchy and inside is tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Allow to cool to room temperature.
• Cook and stir remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, onion, garlic, red bell pepper, jalapeno pepper, ancho chile powder, cumin, and dried oregano together in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Cook and stir until onion is softened, about 5 minutes.
• Pour tomatoes and water into the onion mixture and bring to a simmer. Add cornmeal, 1 teaspoon salt, sugar, and cocoa powder. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes.
• Stir black beans and cooled sweet potatoes into the onion-tomato mixture. Add more water if mixture is too thick. Simmer until heated through, about 15 minutes. Season with salt and cayenne pepper to taste. Serve topped with sour cream and cilantro.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat; add onion and a pinch of salt. Cook and stir onion until softened and translucent, 5 to 10 minutes. Add garlic and ginger; cook and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add beets and stir to combine. Pour water over beet mixture and sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon salt; bring to a boil.
• Cover pot and reduce heat to medium-low; simmer, stirring occasionally, until beets are easily pierced with a fork, 20 to 25 minutes. Add potatoes and cook until potatoes are soft but not falling apart, about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a big skillet over medium heat; add in the onion, bell pepper, and garlic; cover and cook 5 minutes until softened.
• Stir in the chili powder; cook 30 seconds.
• Add in the sweet potatoes; stir to coat with the spices.
• Transfer mixture to a large slow cooker; add in the tomatoes, beans, broth; season with salt; cover and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours.
• When ready to serve, stir in the chipotles; taste to adjust seasonings.

Steps:

• In a 4 to 6 quart Dutch oven or stockpot, sautée the chopped vegetables in one to two tablespoon of olive oil on medium-high heat. You'll need to stir the ingredients every few minutes so they can cook evenly.
• Once the onions start turning translucent, turn the heat down to medium-low. Add all of the spices and canned ingredients, and stir. Cover for about two hours, stirring occasionally.
• By the time your chili is done, the sweet potatoes should be nice and soft and the liquid should have reduced a bit, producing the hearty chili consistency that we all know and love.
• To garnish your bowl of chili, try adding a dollop of sour cream, chopped green onions, fresh cilantro, avocado and grated cheese.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Prick the potatoes with a fork and microwave until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to the oven rack and bake until soft, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, finely chop the red onion. Put 2 tablespoons chopped onion in a small bowl; cover with cold water and let soak 10 minutes. Drain, pat dry and set aside for topping. Chop the poblano and grate the carrot.
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining red onion, the poblano and carrot; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the lentils, chili powder and cumin; cook until the spices are toasted, about 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, until the vegetables are coated. Stir in the tomatoes and their juices, 1 1/2 cups water and a large pinch of salt. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened slightly, about 10 minutes.
• Split the potatoes open. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Fluff the flesh with a fork. Sprinkle with half the cheese, then top with the chili. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese and the reserved red onion.

Steps:

• In a large Dutch oven, warm the oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion, season with salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring and adjusting the heat as needed to avoid burning, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Add the brown sugar, cumin, garlic and onion powders, and stir to combine. Add the orange juice and let it come to a simmer. Add the chipotles and adobo sauce, sweet potatoes, beans, tomatoes and lime juice. Season generously with black pepper and 2 teaspoons salt. Stir in 1 1/4 cups water and bring to a boil.
• Once the chili comes to a boil, decrease the heat to low to maintain a simmer. Cover the pot and cook until the sweet potatoes are tender, 30 to 45 minutes.
• Just before serving, stir in the corn and let it warm through. Taste and add more salt and pepper if necessary. Top with avocado and red onion.
