20-Minute Vegetarian White Bean Chili image

I'm always surprised by how complex this tastes considering it only takes 20 minutes! Three kinds of beans add interest to this simple (and fast) vegetarian/vegan white bean chili recipe. A weeknight go-to around here!

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 23

2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 medium yellow onion (diced) (about 1 cup)
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt + more to taste
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper + more to taste
3 medium cloves garlic (peeled and minced)
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth*
1 (15-ounce) can cannellini beans, rinsed
1 (15-ounce) can navy beans, rinsed
1 15-ounce can chickpeas, rinsed
1 4-ounce can diced green chiles
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/8-1/4 teaspoon ground (cayenne red pepper) (use less for less heat)
Juice of 1 medium lime
Fresh cilantro
Lime wedges to squeeze over the top
Sliced scallions
Diced onions
Grated cheese or vegan cheese
Diced avocado
Sour cream or cashew sour cream
A dash or two of Green Tabasco

Steps:

  • Set a medium-to-large pot over low heat. Add the olive oil, onion, oregano, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Cook the onion, stirring occasionally, until soft and translucent, about 8 minutes.
  • Add the garlic and cumin. Cook, stirring frequently, for another minute.
  • Add the broth, beans, chiles, cloves, and cayenne. Stir to combine. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 3-5 more minutes until thickened a tiny bit.
  • Remove from heat. Run a potato masher or fork through 5-6 times just to smash a few of the beans and help thicken it all up. Squeeze the lime over the top and stir. Taste and add additional salt and pepper if desired.
  • Serve with assorted toppings if desired. I'm partial to this vegan cashew sour cream - yum!

I'm not a fan of this chili. It's too spicy for my taste and the texture is a bit too mushy.

This chili is just okay. It's not bad, but it's not great either. I think it needs a little more flavor.

This is a great recipe! I've made it several times and it's always a hit. The only thing I do differently is to add a little bit of spice. I also like to serve it with cornbread or rice.
