THREE BEAN CHIPOTLE CHILI



Three Bean Chipotle Chili image

Adapted from the back of a can of S&W brand tomatoes. My family loves this one, and it's so quick and easy to make. One of my faves, too. The original recipe is kicking spicy, and I had to tone it down for my spice-wimps. They STILL say it is too spicy how I make it. Watch out for those chipotle chilis in adobo sauce. They are extremely hot. I use low sodium tomatoes and low sodium beans whenever possible.

Tips:

  • Soak the beans overnight: This will help to reduce the cooking time and make the beans more digestible.
  • Use a variety of beans: This will give your chili a more complex flavor and texture. Black beans, kidney beans, and pinto beans are all good choices.
  • Sauté the vegetables before adding them to the chili: This will help to caramelize the vegetables and bring out their flavor.
  • Use a good quality chipotle pepper: This will give your chili a smoky, spicy flavor. If you can't find chipotle peppers in your grocery store, you can order them online.
  • Season the chili to taste: Add salt, pepper, and cumin to taste. You can also add other spices, such as chili powder, oregano, or garlic powder.
  • Let the chili simmer for at least 30 minutes: This will help to develop the flavors and make the chili more tender.
  • Serve the chili with your favorite toppings: Sour cream, shredded cheese, diced avocado, and chopped cilantro are all popular choices.

Conclusion:

Three-bean chipotle chili is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a healthy and affordable meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
