ancho-beef-and-bulgur-chili

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 large onion, coarsely chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, diced
  • 2 serrano chile peppers, stemmed, halved, seeded, and chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ancho chili powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • cup bulgur wheat
  • 1 pound 90%-lean ground sirloin
  • 1 can (15 ounces) plum tomatoes in puree
  • 1 can (15 ounces) black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon coarse salt
  • lime wedges (optional)

DIRECTIONS

  1. In a 5-quart pot, heat the oil on medium. Add the onion, peppers, and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is golden brown and the peppers are tender, about 10 minutes.
  2. Add the cumin, chili powder, oregano, and cinnamon and cook, stirring, for 1 minute to lightly toast them. Stir in the bulgur. Add the beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until it’s no longer pink, about 3 minutes.
  3. Stir in the tomatoes with puree, beans, water, and salt; bring to a simmer. Cover and cook until the flavors are blended and the meat and bulgur are tender, about minutes. Serve with lime wedges if desired.
