I have the recipe for you. This Chili recipe is not only fabulouso but so good for you. I have family who are the Martha Stewards on New York and they raved about it....so because you are a sister bandster....I too share this amazing dish with you....the serect is using one 12 oz bottle of corona beer......
I add a few shakes of Tabasco Chipotle Sauce. The alcohol of the beer cooks out so don't worry even if you are a new post op.
This recipe is excellent with a scoop of Any Whey instantized protein stirred into the post op's serving of chili just before serving. I discovered this product a while back and use it to fortify soups and sauces to boost my protein intake. This is the perfect recipe for this protein as you absolutely cannot detect it in this flavorful chili and even just one half scoop will add 9 additional protein grams to a serving.
8 servings
WLS 1 cup serving Calories 230, fat 12gr, carbs 7gr, protein 17gr
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/2 pounds lean ground turkey or beef
1 large sweet onion, diced
1 large green bell pepper, diced
4 garlic cloves, chopped
3 tablespoons chili powder (I use pure ancho and chipotle, but supermarket varieties are excellent, just make sure it is fresh)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon Tabasco, or to taste
One 15-ounce can diced tomatoes
One 6-ounce can tomato paste
One 12-ounce bottle of Mexican beer
2 cans black beans, rinsed and well-drained
1/2 cup coarsly chopped cilantro
6 corn tortillas
Shredded cheddar
Reduced fat sour cream
Sliced scallions
Sauté the meat in the olive oil in a large, heavy pot over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring with a wooden spoon to break up the pieces, until the meat is brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add the onion, green bell pepper, garlic, chili powder, salt, oregano, and Tabasco, and cook, stirring, until soft, about 6 minutes. Add the tomatoes with their juice, the tomato paste, and beer to the pot. Stir well and bring to a boil. Add the beans, lower the heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Just before serving stir in the chopped cilantro.
Cut the stack of corn tortillas into twelve wedges. Spread out on a baking sheet, sprinkle with kosher salt and chili powder and bake at 350° until crisp and golden, about 10 minutes.
Serve chili with a sprinkle of shredded cheddar, a dollop of sour cream, some scallions, and a few tortilla chips for dipping.
Do let me know how you made out.......I am 7 months out and I have lost 55 pounds and I am in the holding pattern right now.....well they say this too shall pass....
