My Navy Black Bean Chili Recipes

BLACK AND WHITE BEAN CHICKEN CHILI

Steps:

• Heat oil in dutch oven or large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onions and garlic; cook until onions are tender.
• (Have chicken broth ready) Stir in flour, chili powder, cumin and salt. Note: If you use a bullion cube to make the chicken broth, you might want to reduce or leave out the salt.
• Gradually stir in chicken broth until thickened. Add 2 cups of milk and continue stirring.
• Add remaining ingredients except cilantro; stir to combine. Bring to a low boil, but watch for scorching of milk.
• Reduce heat; simmer 15 minutes. Stir in chopped cilantro.
• Garnish with crushed taco chips, sour cream, fresh cilantro and hot sauce if you like.

QUINOA AND BLACK BEAN CHILI

Steps:

• Bring the quinoa and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the quinoa is tender, and the water has been absorbed, about 15 to 20 minutes; set aside.
• Meanwhile, heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in the onion, and cook until the onion softens and turns translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, chili powder, and cumin; cook and stir 1 minute to release the flavors. Stir in the tomatoes, black beans, green bell pepper, red bell pepper, zucchini, jalapeno pepper, chipotle pepper, and oregano. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer 20 minutes.
• After 20 minutes, stir in the reserved quinoa and corn. Cook to reheat the corn for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, and stir in the cilantro to serve.

20-MINUTE VEGETARIAN WHITE BEAN CHILI

Steps:

• Set a medium-to-large pot over low heat. Add the olive oil, onion, oregano, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Cook the onion, stirring occasionally, until soft and translucent, about 8 minutes.
• Add the garlic and cumin. Cook, stirring frequently, for another minute.
• Add the broth, beans, chiles, cloves, and cayenne. Stir to combine. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 3-5 more minutes until thickened a tiny bit.
• Remove from heat. Run a potato masher or fork through 5-6 times just to smash a few of the beans and help thicken it all up. Squeeze the lime over the top and stir. Taste and add additional salt and pepper if desired.
• Serve with assorted toppings if desired. I'm partial to this vegan cashew sour cream - yum!

Add the cilantro, taste and adjust the seasoning, if necessary.
