Description
This smoky chili boasts such a depth of flavor that you’d never know it was whipped up with only five ingredients and in under 45 minutes.
Method
Prepare “Chorizo” according to package instructions. Set aside
In a large pot, heat 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped sweet potatoes, season with a pinch of salt, and add optional spices. Cook for four minutes, stirring so the spices do not stick.
Add stock, salsa, and water to the pot, turn up the heat, and bring to a low boil.
Add beans and “Chorizo” and simmer chili for 30 minutes or until sweet potatoes are tender.
Serve with optional garnishes.
