Otoro's Ultimate Chili image

Everybody loves this great hearty chili. I make this quite often, especially in the winter. Also quite good using venison as a substitute. Serve with hot dogs, cornbread, or maybe some cooked macaroni. I'll sometimes make this a day in advance as it always tastes better the second day. I don't use enough cilantro to have fresh on hand so I usually use dried in this recipe.

Time 1h40m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (approximate)
kosher salt
black pepper
1 1/2 lbs ground round
2 medium onions, diced
4 garlic cloves, finely diced
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
1 (15 ounce) can pinto beans
1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans
1 (15 ounce) can hot chili beans, in sauce
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes
2 (4 ounce) cans diced green chilies
30 tortilla chips, crushed (about 2 big handfuls)
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon dried chipotle powder (optional)
2 teaspoons cumin
1 1/2 teaspoons paprika (smoked if you can find it)
1 tablespoon dried cilantro
1 ounce Jack Daniels Whiskey (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a non-stick 5 quart pot on medium high heat. Add the onion with a pinch of salt and cook, covered on medium low heat for 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally until light brown. Add more oil if needed, make sure the onions don't burn!
  • Turn the heat up to medium high and begin to cook the meat. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Once the meat is almost cooked add the garlic and tomato paste. Break up the tomato paste and incorporate into the meat. It should look like a sloppy joe consistency.
  • When the meat is cooked through, drain if desired and add the beans (along with their liquid) and the rest of the ingredients, stir to combine. If it seems too thick add a bit of water and bring to a boil.
  • Turn the heat down and simmer, partially covered for an hour to an hour and a half. Stir occasionally.
  • Remove from heat. Ladle into serving bowls and garnish with chopped onion, tomato, or grated cheese if desired. Bon Appetito.

This chili is a little too spicy for me, but it's still really good. I'll just have to use less chili powder next time.
