comes a fresh, new, exotic chili recipe. Rather than the typical
Tex-Mex flavor of most chilis, this one is distinctively Lousianan.
You may never go back to regular chili again.
Ingredients:
2 lb. ground pork
2 large onions, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 each sweet red and green pepper, chopped
3 stalks celery, chopped
1 can (28 oz) tomatoes
1 can (28 oz.) kidney beans, drained
1/4 tsp hot pepper flakes
1 tsp dried oregano
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
dash hot pepper sauce
salt and pepper
If you prefer a more traditional chili flavor, use cumin instead
of oregano, and add chili powder to taste.
Directions:
In a heavy saucepan, cook the pork over medium heat, stirring
to break up the meat, for about 5 minutes or until browned.
Pour off the fat.
Add onions, cook until tender. Add the garlic, red and green
peppers and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes
or until vegetables are softened.
Add the tomatoes, breaking them up with the back of a spoon.
Stir in the kidney beans, hot pepper flakes, oregano, cayenne
pepper, hot pepper sauce, and salt and pepper to taste. Bring
to a boil; reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
