Today’s Culinary Creation: Spicy Cinnamon Chocolate Chili

Growing up, I always loved the combination of spicy and sweet flavors. Today, I’m excited to share with you a unique recipe that combines the warmth of cinnamon, the richness of chocolate, and the kick of chili for a truly unforgettable dish.

Ingredients:

  • 500g ground beef
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 400g canned black beans, drained
  • 400g canned diced tomatoes
  • 500ml beef broth
  • 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground cayenne pepper
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Kitchen Tools:

  • large pot
  • wooden spoon
  • chef’s knife
  • cutting board

To begin, heat a large pot over medium heat and brown the ground beef. Add the onion, garlic, and red bell pepper, cooking until the vegetables are soft. Stir in the black beans, diced tomatoes, and beef broth. Season with cocoa powder, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Allow the chili to simmer for at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

The aroma of the cinnamon and cocoa will fill your kitchen, creating a warm and comforting atmosphere. The combination of spicy chili with the subtle sweetness of chocolate will surprise and delight your taste buds.

Once the chili is ready, serve hot, garnished with your favorite toppings such as avocado slices, shredded cheese, or a dollop of sour cream.

This Spicy Cinnamon Chocolate Chili weighs approximately 2200g once cooked and serves 6 people. Each serving is around 367g and has an estimated calorie count of 450.

A clever tip for this recipe is to let the chili rest overnight before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together and intensify, creating an even more delicious dish.

I encourage you to give this unique Spicy Cinnamon Chocolate Chili a try and make it your own by adjusting the spice level to suit your preferences. Enjoy!
