Time 50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 fresh tomatillos, husks removed and halved
4 cloves garlic
2 poblano peppers, tops, seeds, and membranes removed
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium white onion, diced
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth, divided
1 (15 ounce) can low-sodium great Northern beans, rinsed and drained
1 (15 ounce) can low-sodium pinto beans, rinsed and drained
1 ½ cups chopped Tuscan kale
1 cup fresh corn kernels
¾ cup bulgur wheat
¾ teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Set an oven rack 4 to 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
  • Place tomatillos, garlic cloves, and poblano peppers on a baking sheet.
  • Broil in the preheated oven until the peppers start to blacken and blister, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove garlic and transfer to a plate. Turn tomatillos and peppers over and broil until peppers are blackened and tomatillos are soft, 5 to 6 minutes more.
  • Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat until shimmering. Add onion and cook, stirring frequently, until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in oregano, cumin, and chili powder; cook for 1 minute. Add 3 cups vegetable broth, great Northern beans, pinto beans, kale, corn, bulgur wheat, and salt. Return to a simmer.
  • Transfer roasted garlic, peppers, and tomatillos to a blender. Add remaining 1 cup vegetable broth. Cover and blend until just smooth. Pour into the simmering pot.
  • Simmer chili gently until bulgur is tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
