Tonight was chili over rice. Tomorrow plan on using the chili for fries or twice baked potato. Freezing the large bowl.
Recipe is bit thrown together, made burrito bowls but the veggies didn't turn out crisp as I wanted. The broth and tomatoes were from clearance haul. $0.84 per broth and $0.50-$1 for cans of tomatoes.
Recipe:
Sautéed bell pepper and onion from burrito bowls
Black beans both leftover and added fresh
Leftover top of bell pepper from fridge
Leftover air fried chicken from bowls(2-3lbs?)
2x 32oz organic low salt chicken broth
1 can tomatoes with green chile
1 large can crushed tomatoes
1 can diced tomatoes (chili ready)
Splash of soy, worcestershire, and bit of lime
1lb bag of kidney beans
Approx 1/2lb of both pinto and black bean
5-6 dried guajillo chiles
Tablespoon or two of oil, I used safflower
Seasonings to taste: chili powder, ancho chili powder, cumin, onion and garlic pepper, salt, smoked paprika (I go off taste, no measurements.) Can use cayenne if no heat sensitive.
I did quick soak on the kidney beans since they have longer cook time, others just thrown into instant pot with about 4/5th of the broth, tomatoes, oil, soy/worcestershire, and seasoning. Didnt use fresh garlic or onion otherwise sautée them first.
The guajillo chiles were thrown into a pan with the rest of the broth and simmered. Used my immersion blender once they had softened, returned to stove until chile mix thickened. Added to the instant pot.
Pressure cooked on bean/chili setting. Once it was done I cut up and tossed in the previously cooked chicken leftover beans and fajita veggies, put it on sautee for couple minutes to ensure chicken heated proper.
Now you can throw in lime juice and season to taste. Apparently acid messes with the cooking of beans. Can hold off on adding the tomatoes until after beans cook, but didnt affect mine.
Used the last of my old rice from the burrito bowls for tonight's dinner. Added Melindas xhot sauce and tabasco to my bowl for taste and heat. Ghost pepper sauce is great for flavor, too.
