SMOKY BBQ CHILI
Steps:
- 1. Soak the beans in water overnight or for at least 3-4 hours. This part is optional, but it helps reduce cook time and makes the beans more digestible. Rinse and drain beans before using. In a large pot, add the oil and sauté the onion and garlic over medium-low heat for about 5-6 minutes, until translucent. 2. Add in the pepper and optional jalapeno and sauté for another 3-5 minutes. 3. Stir in the spices (chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, cayenne) and sauté on low another couple minutes. If you want, you can add just a bit for now and then add the rest to taste after it has cooked. 4. Add the dry black beans and black eyed peas, broth, and drained diced tomatoes. Stir well. Now stir in the tomato paste. Simmer on low with the lid ajar for about 2.5 hours, checking often to make sure it doesn't dry out. If it does, add a bit more broth to thin out. 5. About 15 minutes before it's done cooking, stir in the chia seeds, corn, and chopped greens. The chia helps thicken the chili. Also stir in the BBQ sauce, starting with 1 tbsp at a time and tasting as you go. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Can be made 2-3 days in advance and frozen if preferred.

[email protected]This chili was a bit too spicy for me, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I will use less chipotle peppers. The smokiness was great, and I loved the addition of the corn and black beans.
