Pauls Fat Tire Lamb Chili Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir lamb until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease.
• Combine tomato sauce, black beans, and amber ale in a large pot. Stir contents of the chili seasoning kit, reserving the masa flour, into the tomato mixture; add onion, jalapeno peppers, garlic, and habanero pepper. Stir in lamb.
• Heat pot on low until lamb mixture begins to lightly simmer, stirring frequently, about 15 minutes. Cover and reduce heat to warm (lowest setting) and cook until chili flavors blend, stirring occasionally, 2 to 4 hours. If the chili is too thin, slowly stir in reserved masa flour. If the chili is too thick, add water.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a soup pot over medium-high heat. Add the lamb and cook, breaking up with a fork, until well browned, 5 minutes. Season with 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Transfer meat to a paper towel-lined plate.
• Add the onion and poblano peppers. Cook until the vegetables are softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Finely chop 2 tablespoons of the cilantro stems and add to the pot. Stir in the garlic and jalapeño and cook 2 minutes. Add the chile powder, coriander and cumin, and cook 1 minute. Stir in the tomato paste and cook until it begins to turn brown.
• Return the lamb to the pot. Stir in 4 cups water, the beans and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Simmer over medium-low heat for 45 minutes; add more water if the chili becomes too thick. Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary. Ladle into bowls, and top with a dollop of yogurt and a squeeze of lime. Garnish with chopped cilantro leaves.

Steps:

• Chop whole onions in food processer. Saute in hot oil in large nonstick pan until they begin to soften.
• Trim lamb of all fat and grind coarsely in food processor. Add to onions, and cook until brown.
• Cut jalapeno in half, and seed. With food processor running, put half the jalapeno, along with the garlic, through feed tube to mince.
• Wash, trim, seed and cut up whole green pepper, and process by pulsing. If the pepper throws off juice, squeeze it. Then add to meat.
• Stir in cumin, coriander and ginger. Reduce heat to simmer.
• Wash tomatoes, trim and halve; chop coarsely in food processor and add to meat. Add beef stock; cook over medium-high heat.
• Rinse beans thoroughly and add to meat; stir well, and cook to heat through.
• Season with salt, if desired, and pepper.
