This delicious and unique recipe is healthy, satisfying and easy to prepare. It's based on a recipe from the "Bon Appétit Test Kitchen" and was printed in their magazine (Jan. 2009). The chocolate and the mustard are not in the original recipe, but I think they add a nice depth that really compliments the citrus.

SPICY BLACK BEAN AND SWEET POTATO CHILI



Spicy Black Bean and Sweet Potato Chili image

This thick, smoky vegan chili comes together in just under an hour, and most of that time is hands-off simmering. You can use any kind of sweet potato here - keep in mind that the orange or garnet "yam" you see at the grocery store is actually a sweet potato - but you could also switch it up and use any peeled sweet winter squash, like butternut or kabocha. The recipe calls for either coconut oil or vegetable oil. If you'd like a mild coconut flavor, which plays well with the orange juice, choose unrefined or virgin coconut oil; for a neutral flavor, choose refined coconut oil or any vegetable oil. Use one chipotle chile for a very mild chili, and four if you like yours very spicy. (Get the slow-cooker version of this recipe here.)

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/4 cup coconut oil or vegetable oil
1 large yellow or red onion, finely chopped
Kosher salt and black pepper
6 garlic cloves, smashed and roughly chopped
2 packed tablespoons light brown sugar
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
3/4 cup orange juice
1 to 4 chipotles from a can of chipotles in adobo, finely chopped, plus 3 tablespoons adobo sauce
1 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes (4 to 5 small-medium or about 2 large), scrubbed and cut into 1-inch pieces
2 (15-ounce) cans black beans, drained
1 (28-ounce) can crushed or diced tomatoes, preferably fire-roasted
Juice of 1 lime (about 1 1/2 tablespoons)
1 (10-ounce) bag frozen corn
Sliced avocado and red onion, for topping

Steps:

  • In a large Dutch oven, warm the oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion, season with salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring and adjusting the heat as needed to avoid burning, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Add the brown sugar, cumin, garlic and onion powders, and stir to combine. Add the orange juice and let it come to a simmer. Add the chipotles and adobo sauce, sweet potatoes, beans, tomatoes and lime juice. Season generously with black pepper and 2 teaspoons salt. Stir in 1 1/4 cups water and bring to a boil.
  • Once the chili comes to a boil, decrease the heat to low to maintain a simmer. Cover the pot and cook until the sweet potatoes are tender, 30 to 45 minutes.
  • Just before serving, stir in the corn and let it warm through. Taste and add more salt and pepper if necessary. Top with avocado and red onion.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of beans: This recipe calls for black beans, but you can also use kidney beans, pinto beans, or a mix of your favorites.
  • Don't skip the orange: The orange adds a bright, citrusy flavor that complements the smokiness of the chili. Be sure to use freshly squeezed orange juice for the best flavor.
  • Cumin is key: Cumin is a warm, earthy spice that gives this chili its signature flavor. Be sure to use freshly ground cumin for the best results.
  • Simmer for flavor: The longer you simmer the chili, the more flavorful it will be. Aim for at least 30 minutes, but you can simmer it for up to an hour if you have time.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: This chili is delicious served with a variety of toppings, such as shredded cheese, sour cream, avocado, or chopped cilantro.

Conclusion:

This vegetarian black bean chili is a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make meal that's perfect for a weeknight dinner. It's packed with protein and fiber, and it's full of flavor. Plus, it's a great way to use up leftover beans. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy vegetarian meal, give this chili a try. You won't be disappointed!
