Today’s Special: Spicy Chocolate Chili

I am excited to share a unique and flavorful recipe with you today — my Spicy Chocolate Chili. This dish is perfect for cozy nights in or gatherings with friends and family. The combination of rich chocolate and fiery spices will warm you from the inside out.

Ingredients:

  • 500g ground beef
  • 400g black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can (400g) diced tomatoes
  • 500ml beef broth
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 100g dark chocolate, chopped
  • 2 tbsp chili powder
  • 1 tbsp cumin
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Kitchen Tools:

  • large pot
  • wooden spoon
  • knife
  • cutting board
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons

To start, heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add diced onion and bell pepper, sautéing until softened. Next, add the ground beef and cook until browned.

Once the beef is cooked, stir in the chili powder, cumin, cinnamon, salt, and pepper. Add the black beans, diced tomatoes, and beef broth to the pot, stirring well to combine. Let the chili simmer for 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

After simmering, stir in the chopped dark chocolate until melted and fully incorporated. The chocolate adds a rich depth of flavor to the dish, complementing the spiciness of the chili.

Serve the Spicy Chocolate Chili hot, garnished with your favorite toppings such as shredded cheese, diced avocado, or a dollop of sour cream.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 1800g, with 6 servings. Each serving weighs around 300g, with an estimated calorie count of 400 per portion.

One unique tip for this recipe is to add a pinch of smoked paprika for an extra layer of smoky flavor. It enhances the overall taste of the chili and gives it a delicious depth.

I hope you enjoy making this Spicy Chocolate Chili as much as I do. Feel free to customize it with your favorite ingredients and spices to make it your own. Bon appétit!
