SPICY BLACK BEAN AND SWEET POTATO CHILI
This thick, smoky vegan chili comes together in just under an hour, and most of that time is hands-off simmering. You can use any kind of sweet potato here - keep in mind that the orange or garnet "yam" you see at the grocery store is actually a sweet potato - but you could also switch it up and use any peeled sweet winter squash, like butternut or kabocha. The recipe calls for either coconut oil or vegetable oil. If you'd like a mild coconut flavor, which plays well with the orange juice, choose unrefined or virgin coconut oil; for a neutral flavor, choose refined coconut oil or any vegetable oil. Use one chipotle chile for a very mild chili, and four if you like yours very spicy. (Get the slow-cooker version of this recipe here.)

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.

SWEET AND SPICY CHILI PORK CHOPS
From Cooking Light. What's particularly nice about this recipe is that, except for the chops, you are likely to have everything else handy. Quick recipe, great for weeknights. I usually use slightly larger bone-in chops, which I prefer.

Steps:
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add pork, cooking 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Remove pan from heat and let pork stand for 30 seconds.
- While pork cooks, combine brown sugar, soy sauce, chile paste, hoisin and rice vinegar in a small bowl.
- Pour sauce over the pork, scraping the pan to loosen the fond. Turn the pork over to coat. (The recipe does not call for this, but I often will return over low heat just to make sure the sauce is heated through, if there is not enough residual heat in the skillet).
- Serve garnished with the green onion slices.
- I had a couple of thick boneless chops sitting around, so I cut them into thin, flat slices and cooked as above; then doubled the sauce ingredients, tossed it all together and served with saffron rice. A nice variation.
CHILI - SWEET AND SPICY
I found this recipe on Yumsugar. I don't know who he is, but this recipe belongs to one Jason Miller of Primehouse NY. It was exactly the type of Chili recipe I have been searching for. I have made many pots of chili, some from this site, some from other sites, but for me, none as delicious as this. I hope someone will try it.

SLOW COOKER SPICY BLACK BEAN AND SWEET POTATO CHILI
This nourishing, smoky vegan chili is perfect for cold weeknights. Mix everything in the slow cooker before the chaos of the day begins, then just toss in some frozen corn a few minutes before you're ready to eat. As with any chili, toppings go far. Feel free to throw on what you have and what sounds good, like tortilla chips, cilantro or vegan cheese. The recipe calls for either coconut oil or vegetable oil. If you'd like a mild coconut flavor - which plays well with the orange juice in the chili - choose unrefined or virgin coconut oil. For a neutral flavor, choose refined coconut oil or any vegetable oil. Use one chipotle chile for a very mild chili, and four if you like yours very spicy.

VEGETARIAN MANDARIN ORANGE LO MEIN WITH A SWEET AND SPICY CHILI SAUCE RECIPE - (4.5/5)
Provided by flour_arrangements
Number Of Ingredients 33
Steps:
- 1. Ending with the corn starch and tofu, add all of the marinade ingredients to a medium sized bowl then refrigerate while you get started on the rest. 2. Fill a large pot with boiling water and cook the noodles with about 1 tbsp of canola oil until they are al dente. Start on the sauce. Combine all ingredients in a small bowl, ending with the corn starch, make sure you mix it well so that there are no lumps. 3. Check on the pasta and chop all of the veggies then get started on the sweet and spicy chili sauce, which will be served on the side. 4. When the pasta is done cooking, strain and keep it in a large bowl. Now get started on frying up the veggies. Add 1TBSPof oil to a sauce pan and then fry the veggies (not frozen ones), starting with the garlic, now add the onion and mushroom. Fry just until the mushrooms start to soften. Remove veggies from the pan. Now add the tofu to the pan and fry on high for a few seconds, while stirring gently; add the fried onion and mushroom. Continue to cook on medium/high until the tofu slightly darkens or becomes golden on one side, then remove the veggies from the pan when most of the marinade has evaporated (all but about 2 tbsp). 5. Now add 1TBSPof canola oil to that same pan, keep it on a low flame and add the pasta with 4 1/2 tbsp of the sauce (not the marinade from the veggies). Use a fork to toss the pasta until it's evenly coated with the sauce. Cook on medium without a lid and continue to toss pasta with the fork, then add the frozen veggies. Cook on low and cover; allow to simmer until frozen veggies are thawed and warm. When they're thawed, add the tofu, fried onion and mushrooms; the almonds and mandarin oranges. Turn off flame and keep covered until ready to serve. 6. For the sweet and spicy chili, combine all of the ingredients in a bowl, including the remaining sauce, then simmer on low in a sauce pan while stirring. Don't cook it for too long, just until it starts to thicken. Now pour the sauce into a small dish. (If you cook it too long, it'll become like glue!); it may look a bit runny, but once it sits for about 5 minutes, it'll thicken. If you thickened the chili sauce too much, you can add a bit of water and microwave it for a few seconds. You can drizzle the chili sauce over the lo mein, it's spicy so a little goes a long way :). You should end up with about 1/4 cup of the chili.

SWEET AND SPICY VEGETARIAN CHILI
This delicious vegetarian chili has tons of protein and a "meaty" texture that even my most devoted carnivores have found satisfying. It is also easy to vary the ingredients if you don't have everything on hand, or want to add something that you do. Try adding sliced fresh mushrooms with the sauteed vegetables in the beginning,...

Steps:
- 1. In a large pot, warm oil and saute onions, carrots, celery and sweet potatoes until vegetables begin to soften, aprox. 10 minutes.
- 2. Add cumin, chili powder, cayenne and garlic powder. Stir and cook until fragrant, about a minute. Add a few drops of water or oil, if necessary, to keep spices from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- 3. Add the tomatoes, black-eyed peas, raisins, Italian herbs, tomato paste and cinnamon. Stir in broth, lentils and quinoa. If you like your chili a bit thinner, add more broth. Cover and simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes, until lentils are cooked.
- 4. Add corn and cook about 5 more minutes until corn is heated through. Top with your favorite cheese if desired. I like the mildness of mozzarella to compliment the sweetness and spiciness of this chili.

Steps:
- 1. Heat olive oil and butter in a large cooking pot over medium high heat. Add the ground duck, along with the next 13 ingredients in the above ingredient list. As the duck cooks, fold those ingredients into the meat in order for the flavors to become integrated together. Stir the meat frequently to ensure that it cooks evenly, about 13-15 minutes.
- 2. When duck is about done, drain the fat from the pot. This must be done because duck is high in fat content, more so than other meats. Once that is done, place pot back on stove and add the red potatoes to the pot and give the meat a few stirs to evenly distribute the ingredients. Add the next five ingredients in the ingredient list and stir the chili until everything is integrated and a good consistency is achieved. Lower the temperature to a low heat, cover the pot, and let simmer for two hours, stirring occasionally.
- 3. Taste chili from time to time, season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve in individual bowls with chopped cilantro on top, if desired.
Tips:
- Choose the right chili peppers: Different chili peppers have different levels of heat, so choose the ones that best suit your taste. If you're not sure, start with a milder pepper and work your way up to hotter ones. Some popular chili peppers for sweet and spicy dishes include serrano peppers, jalapeños, and habaneros.
- Roast the chili peppers: Roasting the chili peppers before using them will help to bring out their flavor and reduce their heat. You can roast them in a preheated oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes, or until they are slightly charred.
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will always taste better than processed ones. When possible, use fresh chili peppers, tomatoes, onions, and garlic in your sweet and spicy dishes.
- Don't be afraid to experiment: There are many different ways to make a sweet and spicy dish. Feel free to experiment with different ingredients and flavors until you find a combination that you love.
Conclusion:
Sweet and spicy dishes are a delicious and versatile way to add some heat to your next meal. Whether you're making a simple stir-fry or a complex curry, there are endless possibilities when it comes to combining sweet and spicy flavors. So next time you're looking for something new and exciting to cook, give one of these recipes a try.
