Secret Ingredient Chili image

Summer means grilling season is in full gear, and if you're like me, it also means leftover hamburgers from cookouts. Put them to tasty use in this chili, ready in about 20 minutes. Canned beans add some heft, and help stretch two leftover burgers into a meal for the whole family.

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cooked burgers (3 ounces each), crumbled
One 15-ounce can tomato sauce (plain, not marinara)
One 10.5-ounce can pink beans, rinsed and drained
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Grated Cheddar, to serve, optional

  • Heat the oil in a 4-quart pot over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onions and saute until lightly golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the meat, sauce, beans, cumin and coriander to the pot. Stir well. Let the chili come to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low. Season with the salt and pepper. Let simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Ladle into deep bowls to serve. Top with cheese, if desired.

This chili was okay, but it didn't really wow me. I've had better chili before.

I'm not a big fan of chili, but this one was really good! The secret ingredient (chocolate!) really makes it.

This chili was a little too spicy for me, but it was still very good. I'll definitely be making it again, but I'll use less cayenne pepper next time.
