Recipe(tried): Chili with Chipotles - The Best Chili Recipe for Bobby (repost)

Main Dishes - Chilis, Stews
This is my very favorite recipe for chili! It was in the Toronto Star Newspaper. Use a Mexican chili powder for chili.

CHILI WITH CHIPOTLES

2 teaspoons olive oil
2 1/2 cups onion, chopped (3 medium)
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons chili powder (Mexican)
1 1/2 tablespoons cumin
1 teaspoon salt
2 cans (28 oz. each) diced tomatoes
2 cans (19 oz. each) black beans, drained and rinsed
1 (19 oz.) can chick peas, drained and rinsed
1 (19 oz.) can red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 small bottle dark beer
8 ounces mushrooms, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
3 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons chipotle peppers*, pureed
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon sugar
2 cups frozen corn (optional)**
grated cheddar (optional)**

In large stockpot, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onions and garlic. Saute until onions are softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Add chili powder, cumin and salt; saute 1 minute.

Add tomatoes, beans, chick peas, beer, mushrooms, bell peppers, tomato paste, chipotles, Worcestershire sauce, and sugar. Raise heat to high and bring to boil; reduce heat and simmer covered for 20 minutes.

Add corn and return to boil over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, 10 minutes.

Divide in bowls and sprinkle with grated cheddar.

*Chipotle Peppers (I can't get these so I use the same amount of Tabasco Chipotle Sauce)

**I always omit the corn and cheddar but I add a dollop of sour cream on top of chili in each bowl. Yum!

VARIATION:

CHILI WITH HAMBURGER

Really good with 2 lb. hamburger. Brown and drain and add with the beer etc. When I make it with meat, I omit black beans and add a can of red kidney beans.
