Beefy Sweet Potato Chili Recipes

SWEET POTATO & BLACK BEAN CHILI

Steps:

• In a nonstick Dutch oven coated with cooking spray, saute sweet potatoes and onion in oil until crisp-tender. Add the chili powder, garlic, cumin and cayenne; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in the beans, tomatoes, coffee, honey, salt and pepper., Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 30-35 minutes or until sweet potatoes are tender. Sprinkle with cheese.

INSTANT POT BEEF AND SWEET POTATO CHILI

Steps:

• Finely chop onions. Set aside 1/2 cup for serving.
• Place bacon in Instant Pot and cook on Sauté setting (or cook over medium-high heat in pressure cooker), stirring occasionally, until dark golden brown and most of the fat is rendered, 6-8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to a medium bowl.
• Let pot heat up again for at least 2 minutes before adding beef; season with 2 tsp. salt. Cook, undisturbed, until browned underneath, 8-10 minutes. Break into bite-size pieces, then transfer to bowl with bacon. Add remaining chopped onion, garlic, cumin, and paprika to pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add harissa and cook, stirring constantly, until it starts to stick to bottom of pot, about 2 minutes. Add stock, potatoes, beans, and remaining 1/2 tsp. salt, stirring to combine. Return reserved bacon and beef to pot and stir again to combine.
• Lock lid and cook chili at high pressure 40 minutes. Let steam release naturally. Stir chili until most of the potatoes have broken down (they will thicken the chili in the process and become part of the liquid). If chili seems too thick, stir in a little bit of water or more stock to loosen. Taste and season with salt if needed.
• Divide chili among bowls. Top with sour cream, cilantro, cheese, and reserved onion.

SWEET POTATO CHILI

Steps:

• Place sweet potatoes, stewed tomatoes, tomato sauce, onion, celery, water, chili powder, cumin, cinnamon, salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder in a slow cooker. Cook on high, stirring occasionally, for 5 hours.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and stir in ground turkey and ground beef. Cook and stir until meat is crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain and discard any excess grease. Add cooked ground turkey, cooked ground beef, black beans, and corn to sweet potato mixture in the slow cooker; cook until flavors have blended, 1 to 2 more hours. Serve warm.

STIR-FRY CHILLI BEEF WITH SWEET POTATO JACKETS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and bake the sweet potatoes for 45 mins, or until tender. Meanwhile, mix the steak with half each of the garlic and paprika.
• Heat the oil in a non-stick wok and stir-fry the pepper for 1 min until starting to soften. Add the remaining garlic and the cumin seeds, and cook for a few minutes more. Tip in the tomatoes and the remaining paprika, and cook for 10 mins. Add the beans and bouillon, and stir-fry until heated through. Stir in the coriander. Halve the baked potatoes almost all the way through, and put onto plates. Top with the avocado and squeeze over some of the lime wedges, and divide the beans between the plates.
• Return the pan to the heat and cook the steak for 5 mins. You shouldn't need to add any oil if you have a good non-stick pan, and if you don't wash the pan, you'll get some nice charred bits on the steak. The centre of the steak strips should be pink and tender. Pile onto the potatoes with a few coriander leaves, and serve with the remaining lime wedges for squeezing over.
