Chili With Sausage and Jalapeno image

This is a real tasty sweet and spicy beanless chili that I tried from Bon Appetit magazine. The recipe was found in the RSVP section as a request from a restaurant in Rochester New York called Dinosaur Bar-B-Que. We loved it and beans could be added easily if you are a bean fan.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Ensure all ingredients are prepped and measured before starting the cooking process.
  • Choose the right peppers: The type of peppers used will significantly impact the chili's heat level. For a milder chili, use fewer jalapeños and more bell peppers. For a spicier chili, increase the number of jalapeños or add hotter peppers like habaneros.
  • Roast the peppers: Roasting the peppers enhances their flavor and adds a smoky depth to the chili. Roast the peppers until they are slightly charred and tender.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the chili will taste. Use ripe bell peppers and firm, crisp jalapeños.
  • Season to taste: Taste the chili as it simmers and adjust the seasonings accordingly. Add more chili powder, cumin, or salt if needed.
  • Let the chili rest: Allow the chili to rest for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and deepen.
