Pork-Bean Chili With Corn Dumplings image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 4h15m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 pound dried black beans, picked over (about 2 cups)
1 teaspoon dried thyme
3 bay leaves
10 cloves garlic (6 smashed; 4 minced)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large onion, diced
3 tablespoons chili powder
1/4 cup ancho chile powder
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
2 14-ounce cans Mexican-style diced tomatoes with green chiles
3 pounds boneless pork shoulder (Boston butt), trimmed and cut into 3/4-inch pieces
Kosher salt
1 bunch cilantro, leaves only
Juice of 2 limes, plus lime wedges for serving
Shredded cheddar cheese, for topping
Sour cream, for serving (optional)
2 cups masa harina (instant corn flour)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Make the chili: Put the beans in a Dutch oven or large pot and add enough water to cover. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat and cook 10 minutes. Drain the beans, return them to the pot and cover with water by about 3 inches. Add the thyme, bay leaves and 4 smashed garlic cloves. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, skimming off any foam, until the beans begin to soften, about 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until golden, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic, chili powder, ancho chile powder, paprika, oregano, cumin and cloves; cook 1 minute. Add the diced tomatoes and cook, stirring, until thickened, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Transfer the tomato mixture to the pot with the beans. Add the pork and 1 teaspoon salt and stir to combine. Bring just to a boil; reduce the heat to medium low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the beans and pork are tender, about 2 hours. (Add water to keep the pork covered, if needed.) Discard the bay leaves.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the dumplings: Combine the masa harina, melted butter and 1 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Stir in 1 1/2 to 2 cups warm water to make a soft dough. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls, then press your thumb into each one to form a cup shape. Cover with plastic wrap until the chili is ready.
  • Combine the remaining 2 smashed garlic cloves, the cilantro, lime juice, 1 1/2 cups water and 2 teaspoons salt in a blender and puree until smooth. Stir the cilantro mixture into the chili. Gently add the dumplings (do not stir) and simmer until cooked through and firm, 30 to 35 minutes. Thin the chili with a splash of hot water, if needed. Ladle into bowls and top with cheese; serve with lime wedges and sour cream, if desired.

  • Cook the dumplings until they are cooked through. They should be firm to the touch and should float to the top of the water.
  • Serve the dumplings immediately with your favorite gravy or sauce.
