FIESTA CHILI

I have made this dish for a group of 40. Made sure I did not tell them it was turkey until they asked for the recipe. Everyone could not believe it was turkey. Everyone wants me to make it again. Top with shredded Cheddar cheese alongside Spanish rice and tortilla chips.

FIESTA STEAK CHILI



Fiesta Steak Chili image

This is a basic recipe for non-traditional chili using steak. My wife is allergic to chili powder, so I don't use any in this recipe, but you are welcome to add some if you like. This is a very tame, full-flavor, colorful chili recipe that even the kids will like. There are plenty of other variations that you can use with this basic recipe, please change at will. Things we have tried include adding three or four fresh jalapenos, or adding Tabasco® habanaro sauce, or cilantro, or fresh tomatoes, or using red, yellow, orange, and green peppers, or hamburger instead of a steak or roast. Serve with tortilla chips, cheese and sour cream.

FIESTA CHILI-LIME CON CARNE



Fiesta Chili-Lime Con Carne image

With a bit of a bite, this super flavorful chili is a perfect all-around gameday treat. We substituted Frank's hot sauce and the juice of one large lime in place of the chile'n lime hot sauce. It turned out great, but we would recommend using the sauce called for in the recipe if your grocery carries it.
