Smoky Two Bean Chili

black beans, cannellini beans, tortilla chips, cilantro ranch

Chili and chill, anyone? We make our chili with two types of beans *and* two types of peppers: ancho chiles and chipotle peppers in adobo sauce. This rich, hearty dinner is high in protein and fiber—the nutritional one-two punch you need.

INSTRUCTIONS

1
Preheat oven and make tomato paste

Preheat oven to 350°F. In small bowl, stir together tomato powder and 2 tbsp water to make tomato paste and set aside for step 3.

2
Prepare broth

Add ancho chili powder, broth concentrate, chipotle pepper in adobo, a pinch of salt, and 2 cups water to blender. Blend until smooth, about 1 minute. (TIP: Begin blending on low and finish on high to avoid splashing.)

3
Cook the aromatics

Heat 2 tsp vegetable oil in medium pot over medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic, and a pinch of salt. Cook until onion is softened and browned in places, 3 to 5 minutes. Add tomato paste and oregano and stir to coat onion.

4
Simmer the chili

Add blended broth, black beans, cannellini beans, maple syrup, and ½ cup water to pot with aromatics. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes.

5
Prepare the chips

Place tortilla strips on baking sheet in single layer and brush pieces with 1 tsp vegetable oil. Sprinkle with salt and bake until crispy, 12 to 15 minutes, rotating baking sheet halfway through.

6
Serve

Stir together lime juice, cilantro, and ranch dressing in medium bowl. Divide smoky two bean chili between large bowls. Serve with cilantro ranch dressing, lime wedges, and tortilla chips for dipping. ¡Buen provecho!
