Descripción de la receta:

Make a double batch of this quick vegetarian chili, full of black beans and sweet potatoes, and eat it for lunch the next day or freeze the extras for another night. We love the smoky heat from the ground chipotle, but omit it if you prefer a mild chili. Serve with tortilla chips or cornbread and coleslaw.

Ingredientes de la receta:

1. 1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
2. 1 medium-large sweet potato, peeled and diced
3. 1 large onion, diced
4. 4 cloves garlic, minced
5. 2 tablespoons chili powder
6. 4 teaspoons ground cumin
7. 1/2 teaspoon ground chipotle chile (see Note)
8. 1/4 cucharadita de sal
9. 2 1/2 cups water
10. 2 15-ounce cans black beans, rinsed
11. 1 14-ounce can diced tomatoes
12. 4 teaspoons lime juice
13. 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Pasos de la receta:

1. Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add sweet potato and onion and cook, stirring often, until the onion is beginning to soften, about 4 minutes. Add garlic, chili powder, cumin, chipotle and salt and cook, stirring constantly, for 30 seconds. Add water and bring to a simmer. Cover, reduce heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook until the sweet potato is tender, 10 to 12 minutes.
2. Add beans, tomatoes and lime juice; increase heat to high and return to a simmer, stirring often. Reduce heat and simmer until slightly reduced, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in cilantro.
