Directions
Instructions:
-
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the ground meat, season with salt and pepper, and brown until fully cooked. Remove excess fat if needed.
-
Add the chopped onions, minced garlic, and jalapeño chiles to the pot. Sauté until the vegetables are softened.
-
Stir in the ancho chile powder, paprika, and tomato paste. Cook for a couple of minutes to enhance the flavors.
-
Pour in the Black Box red wine, scraping the bottom of the pot to release any browned bits. Allow the wine to simmer and reduce for about 5 minutes.
-
Add the chopped tomatoes along with their juices, beef stock, kidney beans, chipotle chiles, and dried oregano. Stir well to combine.
-
Bring the chili to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Let it cook uncovered for at least an hour, stirring occasionally.
-
Adjust the seasoning to taste and let the chili simmer for an additional 30-40 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
-
Serve the chili hot, garnished with coarsely chopped cilantro, cheese, and a dollop of sour cream.
