RECIPE BY Cooking Light

Lamb is a flavorful switch from typical ground beef in this black-bean chili recipe. If you don't  have ground lamb on hand, you can use beef instead—it still delivers.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds lean ground lamb
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 (14 1/2-ounce) cans no-salt-added whole tomatoes, undrained and chopped
  • 1 cup dry red wine
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3 (15-ounce) cans black beans, drained
  • 1/4 teaspoon hot sauce
  • Cilantro sprigs (optional)

Good flavor but too many beans. Next time I'll only do two cans of beans.

I made this last month while looking for ideas for a chili cook-off. It was only okay, and if I made it again, I would need to spice it up. With a pound of meat and all those beans, you need at least 2 Tbls. of chili powder for flavor. I would also add a tsp. of smoked paprika or some chipotle peppers for smoke. A quarter teaspoon of hot sauce doesn't begin to spice up a recipe this size. I will make it again, but with the above changes. Served with cornbread and a salad.
