- 2 Medium Onions
- 2 Tbsp Minced Garlic
- 1 Can (7oz) chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 2 tsp Oregano
- 4 tsp salt
- 1 oz Achiote paste
- 2 Tbsp Cumin
- 4 tsp Chili Powder
- 8 cans black beans
Step 1:
Mince the onions in a food processor. Add the garlic and cook them down together with olive oil till the onion starts to turn translucent.
Step 2:
Mince the chipotle peppers and other spices (Oregano, Chili Powder, Cumin, Achiote Paste) in a food processor. Add them with the salt to the grilled onion mixture. You will make a red colored paste which is the flavoring sauce for the beans.
Step 3:
Add between 6-8 cans of black beans (depending on how spicy you want your chili) to a crock pot. Pour in the spice sauce made in steps 1 and 2. Simmer in the crock pot for a couple hours till the mixture blends well. If you like your chili to be more tangy, you can add up to 1/4 cup of ketchup to the mix. This gives it more BBQ sauce flavor and reduces the hotness of the peppers a bit.
Serve with sour cream or cheese on top.
