500g potatoes , peeled and chopped
2 x 400g cans cannellini beans , drained
3 tbsp chopped fresh coriander
1 tsp chilli powder
2 tsp olive oil
2 tbsp finely chopped ginger
1 red chilli , deseeded for less spice

2 tsp vegetable bouillon
3 tbsp peanut butter (with no sugar or palm oil)
320g broccoli , to serve

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Cook the potatoes in a steamer for 15 mins until tender. Meanwhile, start the chicken filling. Heat the oil in a non-stick pan, add the ginger and chilli, and stir over a medium heat until starting to soften. Stir in the dried spices, leeks and peppers. Cook, stirring frequently, until softened.
  • Add the chicken and stir-fry until it begins to colour, then tip in the tomatoes, squeeze in some tomato purée and add the bouillon and 150ml water. Cover and simmer for 10 mins.
  • Mix the peanut butter with 100ml water, then stir into the stew and cook for 5 mins more. Spoon the mixture equally into two 24 x 18cm shallow pie dishes.

GROUND BEEF CHILI WITH CHOCOLATE AND PEANUT BUTTER



Ground Beef Chili With Chocolate and Peanut Butter image

Making use of a well-stocked pantry, this weeknight chili takes inspiration from the flavor profile of mole negro, an Oaxacan sauce made with chiles and chocolate that traditionally takes a full day to make, but results in a pot full of depth and nuance in less than an hour. It relies upon ground beef or turkey, and uses canned chiles in adobo, paprika and ancho chili powder for heat, plus a mix of warm spices, chocolate in two forms, and a little bit of peanut butter to round it out. In essence, this recipe is another variation of the combination of sweet and heat.

Categories     dinner, lunch, one pot, soups and stews, main course

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 medium yellow onion, diced (about 8 ounces)
2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more as needed
3 canned chiles in adobo, finely chopped
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
2 teaspoons ancho chile powder
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano, preferably Mexican
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
2 pounds ground beef or ground dark turkey
1 (15-ounce) can petite diced tomatoes
1 cup stout beer
1 cup unsalted or low-sodium beef stock or chicken stock
2 (15-ounce) cans pinto beans, rinsed
4 ounces good dark chocolate, chopped
2 tablespoons smooth peanut butter
Any combination of tortilla chips, shredded cheese and diced avocado, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium. Add onion and salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion starts to soften and become translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Add chiles, cocoa powder and spices, and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Add ground meat and cook, breaking apart with a wooden spoon and stirring occasionally, until cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add tomatoes and their juices, beer and stock to the pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the temperature to a simmer, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes until the flavors meld a bit.
  • Reduce heat to low (if not already there), then stir in the beans, chocolate and peanut butter until beans are warmed through and chocolate has melted, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and serve with tortilla chips, cheese, avocado or whatever toppings you desire.

Tips:

  • Use creamy peanut butter: Smooth peanut butter will blend more easily into the chili and create a creamier texture.
  • Choose a chili with a medium heat level: If you prefer a spicier chili, you can add more cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to taste.
  • Don't overcook the chili: Overcooked chili can become dry and tough. Simmer the chili for just long enough to heat it through and allow the flavors to meld.
  • Use a variety of toppings: Shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, diced avocado, and chopped cilantro are all great toppings for peanut butter chili pie.
  • Make it ahead of time: Peanut butter chili pie can be made ahead of time and reheated before serving. This makes it a great option for busy weeknights.

Conclusion:

Peanut butter chili pie is a unique and delicious twist on the classic chili pie. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it mild, medium, or spicy, peanut butter chili pie is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
