   1       lb           Kidney beans
   3       lb           Chicken
   3       tb           Olive oil
   4                    Garlic cloves -- sliced
   3                    Onions -- peel/chop
   1       t            Cumin seed -- whole
   2                    Jalapeno peppers
   2       c            Prepared chili sauce
   4                    Tomatoes -- chopped
   2                    Green bell peppers
   1       tb           Worcestershire sauce
   1       c            Red wine
                        Salt -- to taste

     Soak the kidney beans overnight; drain.
     Cut up the chicken into serving pieces.
     Cook the beans and brown the chicken.
     Seed and chop the jalapeno peppers and the bell
  peppers.
     Heat a large frying pan and add the oil.  Saute the
  garlic, onions, cumin seeds and jalapeno peppers until
  the onions are clear.  Add all to a heavy pot and
  bring to a simmer.  Cook for 1 hour.
  
    Comments:  This one has to be different.  If it came
  from California it is expected to be unusual.
     Try this.  No avocado, but chicken and a very mild
  chili sauce from a jar.  It is really a great dish,
  although one should not confuse it with the old-line
  chili cookers' product.
