Ground Lamb and Lentil Chili

Recipe #217574 | 1 hour | 15 min prep | add private note

This is my fiance and my favorite lamb chili recipe. We like our dishes hot, so this is pretty spicy. I got this recipe from "The Chili Cookbook" by Norman Kolpas.

SERVES 4 -6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    In a medium pot, heat oil over medium heat. Add garlic and onions and saute until onions are transparent, 2 to 3 minutes.
  2. 2
    Add chile powder, paprika, chile flakes, cayenne, cumin and coriander; saute, stirring constantly, about 2 minutes more.
  3. 3
    Add lamb and stir and mash constantly with a wooden spoon to break it up into very fine particles, until evenly browned, 5 to 7 minutes.
  4. 4
    Stir in lentils, broth, tomatoes, oregano, rosemary, salt, sugar, and pepper; bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until lentils are tender and chili is thick, about 30 minutes, adding some water to pot if lentils absorb all liquid before chili is done.
  5. 5
    Garnish with cilantro before serving.

This is a really nice chili. I knew I would like it when I saw the list of spices and they were just right. Lots of flavor and spicy, but not too hot - but then, we like the heat! I put everything in the crock pot and let it cook all day, so I added extra tomatoes and a splash of red wine. Wonderful! Thanks for posting.
