Time 2h10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 large bell peppers (1 green, 1 red), chopped
3 carrots, diced
Kosher salt
6 cloves garlic, finely chopped
3 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/3 cup brewed coffee
1 28-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes (preferably fire- roasted), crushed by hand
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 15-ounce cans pinto beans, undrained
1/2 head cauliflower, trimmed and coarsely grated on a box grater (or 3 cups pre-grated)
Freshly ground pepper
Assorted toppings

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion, bell peppers, carrots and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring, until the carrots start softening, about 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the chili powder, cumin and tomato paste and cook, stirring, until deep red, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the coffee and simmer until almost completely evaporated, about 30 seconds. Stir in the tomatoes, 2 cups water, the cocoa powder and beans with their liquid. Simmer over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 1 hour 15 minutes.
  • Stir in the grated cauliflower and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. (Add a splash of water if the chili is too thick.) Season with salt and pepper. Top as desired.

This chili was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. I will definitely be making it again, but I will use less chili powder next time.

This chili was a bit bland for my taste. I had to add some extra spices to give it some flavor. Other than that, it was a good recipe.
