Recipe For Outback Tasmanian Chili

Ingredients:

• 1 lb steak
• 1 can diced tomatoes, undrained
• 1 small onion, diced
• 1 green bell pepper, diced
• 1 red bell pepper, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp. chili powder
• 1 tsp. ground cumin
• 1/2 tsp. paprika
• 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 cup water
• Shredded cheddar cheese and sour cream for serving

Instructions:

1. Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the steak and cook until browned.
2. Add the onion, bell peppers, and garlic [1] to the pot and cook for 5-7 minutes or until the vegetables are softened.
3. Add the diced tomatoes, chili powder, cumin, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper to the pot. Stir to combine.
4. Add the water to the pot and stir again. Bring the Chili to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low.
5. Cover the pot and let the Chili simmer for 30-40 minutes, or until the flavors have melded together and the Chili has thickened.
6. If desired, serve the Chili hot, with shredded cheddar cheese and a dollop of sour cream [2].

Tips & Tricks To Make The Perfect Recipe

1. Use high-quality ingredients: Start with fresh ingredients for the best flavor. This means using fresh vegetables, quality steak, and canned tomatoes without added salt or preservatives.
2. Let the flavors meld: Once you’ve added all the ingredients to the pot, let the Chili simmer for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. This will give your Chili a rich, complex flavor.
3. Adjust the spice level: Feel free to adjust the spice level to your liking. Add more cayenne pepper or chili powder if you like your Chili spicier. If you prefer a milder chili, use less.
4. Top with your favorite toppings: The possibilities are endless for toppings for Chili. Try topping your Outback Tasmanian Chili with shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, diced onions, or fresh cilantro. This will add an extra layer of flavor and texture to your Chili.

“My mother was an enthusiastic chef but wildly disorganized, and often preferred purchasing yet another jar of mace or chili powder rather than having to hunt down its last incarnation.”

How To Serve Outback Tasmanian Chili

1. With cornbread: Serve the Chili with a side of warm cornbread. The sweet, crumbly texture of the cornbread pairs perfectly with the spicy, hearty flavor of the Chili.
2. Over rice: Spoon the Chili over a bed of fluffy white rice for a filling and satisfying meal. The rice will absorb some Chili sauce and add a slightly sweet flavor.
3. With tortilla chips: Crush up some and sprinkle them on top of the Chili for added crunch and texture. The salty, savory chips will contrast nicely with the bold flavors of the Chili.
4. In a bread bowl: For a fun twist on the classic chili recipe, serve the Outback Tasmanian Chili in a bread bowl. Simply hollow out a round loaf of bread, spoon in the Chili, and top with your favorite toppings.
5. With a salad: Serve the Chili with a side salad to balance the meal. A simple green salad with a light vinaigrette will complement the bold flavors of the Chili without overpowering them.
