Method
- Prepare your veggies: dice and slice your onions, peppers and garlic.
- Start cooking: drizzle a glug of olive oil into a pan over a medium heat and add your onions. Cook until they have softened, stirring frequently. Add your peppers, garlic, chillies, 2 tsp of paprika and 2 tsp of ground cumin and give it a good stir.
- When you can smell those spicy aromas, turn up the heat a little and add your turkey/ beef mince and brown - break up the meat with your spoon and cook for 3-5 minutes.
- The Sauce: add your bone broth, your tomatoes, 2 tsp of marjoram, 1 1/2 tsp of sugar, a good shake of salt and pepper and a good squirt of tomato puree. Mix all together.
- Add a tbsp of cacao powder, or a couple of squares of dark chocolate and 2 tbsp of collagen. At this point, either bring your chilli to a gentle simmer and cook for 20-25 minutes, or pop it in your slow cooker for tonight’s dinner.
- When your chilli is almost ready and if you’re opting for kidney beans, it’s time to drain and sieve before popping them in. Cook for a further 10 minutes. Taste and season accordingly.
- After 10 minutes, turn off the heat, cover and leave to stand, allowing those scrummy flavours to mingle.
- Whilst your chilli is standing, get your rice on and leave to simmer. Meanwhile, decant 2 avocados, a pinch of salt and the juice of one lime into a bowl and mash.
- Serve your chilli with a side of your sourdough crackers, guacamole, sour cream and rice. Enjoy your amino and fatty acid, tryptophan rich gut joy!
