Like any chili, this is even better the second day. Warm corn tortillas are the perfect accompaniment. Ingredients:
3 tablespoons olive oil |
1 medium onion, chopped |
2 medium carrots, chopped |
2 medium celery stalks, chopped |
2 large garlic cloves, minced |
1 pound pork sirloin cutlets, cut into 1/2-inch dice |
salt and freshly ground pepper |
1 teaspoon chili powder (or to taste) |
1/2 teaspoon cumin |
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, crumbled |
1/8 teaspoon ground sage |
1 cup beef broth |
1 14 1/2-ounce can peeled tomatoes (undrained) |
2 15-ounce cans cannellini or great northern beans, rinsed and drained |
grated cheddar and/or monterey jack cheese |
minced fresh cilantro |
Directions:
1. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in heavy large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add onion, carrots, celery and garlic and cook until tender, about 10 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in heavy large skillet over high heat. Pat pork dry. Add to skillet, season with salt and pepper and cook until browned, stirring frequently, approximately 6 minutes.
