I have previously posted that I have many different variations of chili recipes.
This is an authentic Mexican style chili.
In Mexico and some southwest states they do not use ground beef in their chili, true southwest style chili is made with cubes of beef.
Salsa Clasica sauce can be found in the Mexican food section of the grocery store. If you cant find it chipotle sauce would substitute well.
The longer cooking time results in a tender stew style chili that will warm you up after coming in from the cold.
Authentic Southwestern Chili
- ~oil
- 2 pounds of stewing beef or a rib roast cubed
- 1 onion diced
- 4 cloves of garlic minced
- 1 can each of Mexican red beans and kidney beans drained
- 1 can of diced tomatoes
- half a dozen or so of fresh Roma tomatoes (optional)
- 2 tbsp of chili powder (or to taste)
- 2 tsp of Salsa Clasica sauce
In an oven proof dutch oven heat the oil and saute the onions until soft.
Add the beef and brown on all sides.
Add the remaining ingredients, mix well cover and cook in the oven for about 2 and a half hours until meat is tender.
Cheers!
