Categories     main-dish

Time 2h15m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 pounds ground meat (any combination of ground beef chuck, pork shoulder or veal shoulder)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 large onions, chopped
2 bunches scallions, chopped (about 2 cups)
2 tablespoons tomato paste
6 tablespoons chile powder
One 12-ounce bottle dark beer, such as Dos Equis
Two 28-ounce cans whole fire-roasted tomatoes, crushed by hand
2 cups chicken stock
2 tablespoons red hot sauce, such as Tabasco
2 tablespoons green hot sauce, such as Tabasco
Suggested toppings: 1 cup lightly whipped and chilled creme fraiche, sliced jalapenos, fresh cilantro leaves, diced tomatoes, sliced cherry peppers, shredded Monterey Jack and shredded Cheddar

Steps:

  • In a large Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the ground meat. Cook and stir occasionally until browned all over and you can hear a slight crackling in the pan, letting you know the moisture has cooked away, about 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Reduce the heat to medium. Add the garlic, onions and half of the scallions and cook until wilted, about 5 minutes. Make a space in the pan and drop in the tomato paste. Let toast for 1 minute and then stir into the meat. Sprinkle on the chile powder. Cook and stir until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
  • Pour in the beer and cook until almost reduced away, about 4 minutes. Pour in the tomatoes and stock and season with the red and green hot sauce. Adjust the heat so the chili is gently simmering and cook, uncovered, until the chili is thick, dark red and flavorful, about 1 1/2 hours. Serve in bowls with the remaining scallions and suggested toppings.

SUNNY'S GAME DAY CHILI

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 25

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large onion, chopped
1 jalapeno, seeded and chopped
Salt
1 pound uncooked or fresh Mexican chorizo (about 4 links)
2 cloves garlic, sliced
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon Hungarian or hot paprika
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
4 Roma tomatoes, seeded and chopped
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 pounds ground turkey
2 teaspoons gravy flavoring (recommended: Gravy Master or Kitchen Bouquet)
2 cups chicken stock
1 tablespoon hot sauce (recomended: Frank's Red Hot)
1 (3-inch) cinnamon stick
Freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons fine-ground cornmeal
20 blue corn tortillas
Vegetable oil, for frying
2 (15.5-ounce) cans cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
Possible garnishes: 1 (8-ounce) container sour cream, 2 cups grated Cheddar, 2 cups grated pepper jack cheese, 1 large onion, diced, 4 scallions, chopped, 5 Roma tomatoes, diced, 1 bunch cilantro, leaves chopped

Steps:

  • In a large stock pot on medium-high heat add the vegetable oil, onion and jalapeno. Sprinkle with salt and saute until both are slightly tender. Remove the casing from the chorizo and add it to the pot. Using a wooden spoon or a potato masher, break up the links until they resemble ground meat. Saute until the orange-colored oil is released and the chorizo begins to slightly crisp about 10 minutes. Add the garlic, cumin, oregano, chili powder, thyme, paprika, red pepper flakes, tomatoes, and tomato paste. Stir all ingredients well and cook until the tomato skins begin to peel back and everything is a dark reddish-brown color, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the turkey and gravy flavoring, then using a spoon or masher, break the ground turkey apart stirring frequently while cooking. Cook until the turkey is heated through, then add chicken stock, hot sauce, cinnamon stick, and salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in the cornmeal, lower to a simmer and cover. Cook for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally to release the chili from the bottom of the pot. Remove cinnamon stick when it begins to un-curl itself and soak up a bit of moisture becoming dense and hydrated, around 40 minutes into the simmer.
  • Meanwhile, in a heavy pot or deep-fryer heat enough oil to fill the pot at least 3-inches deep to 350 degrees F. Stack the tortillas, a few at a time, and cut into 4 strips. When the oil reaches temperature, add 5 to 6 strips at a time and fry in batches until a tap from a spoon sounds hollow and bubbles begin to form on the strips, about 1 minute for each batch. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle each batch immediately with salt. About 30 minutes before serving add the cannellini beans to the chili and stir to heat through.
  • Transfer the chili to a large serving bowl and serve with the tortilla chips and garnishes set up like a bar.
