Award Winning Chili
Ingredients
1 (14.5 ounce) can stewed tomatoes, chopped
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
1 carrot, sliced
1 onion, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
1/4 cup white wine
1 pinch crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper
1/4 cup chopped red bell pepper
1/3 cup steak sauce, (e.g. Heinz 57)
5 slices bacon
1 1/2 lbs ground beef
1 (1.25 ounce) package chili seasoning mix
1 tsp ground cumin
1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, drained
1 Tbs chopped fresh cilantro
1 Tbs chopped fresh parsley
Procedure
-
In a large pot over medium-low heat, combine tomatoes, tomato paste, carrot, onion, celery, wine, pepper flakes, bell peppers and steak sauce.
- While tomato mixture is simmering, in a large skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crisp. Remove to paper towels. Cook beef in bacon drippings until brown; drain. Stir chili seasoning into ground beef.
- Stir seasoned beef, cumin and bacon into tomato mixture. Continue to simmer until vegetables are tender and flavors are well blended.
- Stir in beans, cilantro and parsley. Heat through and serve.
- NOTE: Because of the low boiling point of alcohol, it evaporates out of the chili. However, if you feel more comfortable simply omit.
