Classic Chili con Carne on Cornbread Toasts

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ lb Open Prairie® Natural* Angus Beef chuck pot roast, cut into ½-inch cubes
  • 3 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 can tomato paste (5 ½ oz)
  • 1 Tbsp chili powder
  • 2 tsp cocoa powder
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp freshly ground pepper
  • 1 can crushed tomatoes (28 oz)
  • 1 ½ c beef stock
  • 8 slices cornbread (4- x 1-inch thick)
  • 1 avocado, peeled, pitted and sliced
  • ⅓ c shredded Cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese

Instructions

  1. In Dutch oven or saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat; brown meat in batches. Transfer to plate or bowl.
  2. Reduce heat to medium. Add remaining oil to saucepan; cook onion and garlic, stirring, for about 5 minutes or until softened. Add tomato paste, chili powder, cocoa, cumin, oregano, salt and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.
  3. Return beef to saucepan. Stir in tomatoes and stock; bring to boil. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 1 ½ hours or until beef is very tender and sauce is thickened.
  4. Place cornbread slices on baking sheet and toast in 375°F oven for about 10 minutes or until crisp and lightly golden. Top with a spoonful of chili, sliced avocado and cheese.
    • TIPS:
      • The chili can also be served as an appetizer on smaller pieces of cornbread.

      • You can make this chili ahead. The flavor actually improves aft er being refrigerated overnight before reheating.

      • Use cornbread mix to make an 8-inch square cornbread. Cut into 4 squares; cut each square horizontally in half and toast until golden.
