Dks Hybrid Chili Recipes

THE BEST CHILI

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a Dutch oven or large pot over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until just browned, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate with a slotted spoon.
• Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly golden, about 10 minutes.
• Add the jalapeno and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Add the chili powder, cumin, paprika, cayenne, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the tomato paste. Cook, stirring frequently, until coated and fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Stir in the beef broth and crushed tomatoes and bring to a boil over high heat. Stir in the cooked ground beef and any accumulated liquid, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer the chili, partially covered, until the beef is tender and the sauce is slightly thickened, about 30 minutes.
• Stir in the beans and their liquid and simmer uncovered until the beans are softened and the chili is thickened, about 30 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper.
• Top with sour cream, Cheddar and scallions. Serve with tortilla chips.

HEARTY DAKOTA CHILI (CROCK POT)

Steps:

• Brown ground beef and onion in a skillet just until browned.
• Transfer the beef and onions to either a crock pot or a large pot on the stove.
• Add all of the liquid ingredients then all of the spices and stir together. If you think you need or like a little more liquid add a little bit of water, use your judgment on the amount of liquid, it should cover the beans and beef easily but not be overly soupy.
• Cook covered over low heat on the stove for at least an hour or two, stirring gently every 20 minutes or so, OR cook in a crock pot on low for about 6 hours.
• Let sit off the heat for about 15 minutes and serve with some crackers or bread and some shredded cheese. Enjoy! :).
