Slow Cooker Chipotle Chili Recipes

Steps:

• Cook sausage and ground beef in a large pot over medium-high heat until lightly browned and crumbly. When the meat has released its grease, and has begun to brown, drain off accumulated grease, and season with chili powder, cumin, and coriander. Cook and stir for 1 minute until fragrant, then stir in the garlic and onion. Cook until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 4 minutes.
• Stir in the diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, kidney beans, chipotle peppers, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer, then pour the chili into a slow cooker. Cover, and cook on Low for 8 to 10 hours. Stir in tomato paste an hour before the chili is done.

Steps:

• Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the sirloin, garlic, and onion. Cook until the beef is browned, 6-7 minutes.
• Transfer the sirloin mixture with a slotted spoon to a slow cooker and add the next 8 ingredients (through cumin). Season with salt and cook on low 6 hours.
• Stir in the tomato paste and taste for seasoning, adding more salt, if needed. Cook 1 hour longer.
• Divide the chili among 5-6 bowls and serve with chopped scallions and cheese, if desired.

Steps:

• Open the cans of beans. Drain all liquid from the cans and give the beans and pour them into a colander. Give them a rinse and set aside.
• Peel sweet potato and chop into ½-inch pieces.
• Place all ingredients (except the lime juice and cilantro) into a slow cooker. Set slow cooker on low and the cooking time to 8 hours.
• When you are ready to eat the chili, scoop out the chicken breast. Using a fork, shred the meat. Add the meat back to the chili again and stir.
• Serve in bowls and top with cilantro if you like. Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Set the slow cooker to low. Heat 1½ tbsp oil in a large, non-stick pan over a high heat and fry the mince for 10-12 mins or until evenly browned. Tip into the slow cooker.
• Heat the remaining oil in the pan. Fry the onion, celery and pepper for 10 mins or until softened. Add the garlic, cumin and paprika and fry for 1 min. Tip into the slow cooker.
• Stir in the oregano, chipotle paste, tomato purée, tomatoes and stock. Season. Cover and cook for 6-8 hrs.
• Stir in the beans and chocolate during the final 30 mins of cooking. Serve with a bowl of rice or tortilla chips and a dollop of soured cream.
