Make this chili up to 8 hours ahead and reheat before serving. Tasty toppings include chopped scallions, sliced radishes, shredded lettuce, lime wedges and hot sauce.
Ingredients
jalapeño pepper(s)
3 medium, 2 green and 1 red (Couldn't find a red so cut up a regular red pepper for the color)
extra virgin olive oil
1 Tbsp
uncooked onion(s)
1 large, chopped
poblano chile
3 medium, halved, seeded, and chopped
kosher salt
1 tsp, divided or salt
black pepper
¼ tsp, freshly ground, divided, or to taste
tomatillo
2 medium, husked, rinsed, diced
garlic clove(s)
6 medium clove(s), finely chopped
chili powder
4 Tbsp
ground cumin
1 ½ Tbsp
dried oregano
1 tsp, (Mexican variety suggested)
ground allspice
½ tsp
fat free reduced sodium vegetable broth
6 cup(s)
canned cannellini beans
15 ½ oz, or pinto beans, rinsed, drained, mashed slightly with a fork
canned hominy
15 oz, white variety, rinsed, drained
uncooked cauliflower
1 head(s), medium
cilantro
¼ cup(s), chopped, plus torn leaves for garnish
Instructions
Seed and chop green jalapenos; set aside. Seed and slice red jalapeno for garnish; set aside (leave some seeds in for extra heat, if desired).
Heat oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add onion, poblanos, chopped jalapenos, 1/2 tsp salt and a few grinds pepper; cook, stirring frequently, until vegetables begin to soften, 5 minutes. Add tomatillos and garlic; cook until slightly softened, 3 minutes.
Add chili powder, cumin, oregano and allspice; cook, stirring, until spices are toasted, 2 minutes (add a splash of water if mixture begins to stick). Add broth and beans; reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, 10 minutes. Add hominy; cook, stirring occasionally, until chili thickens slightly, 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, core and trim large stems off cauliflower; coarsely grate florets on a box grater (you should get about 8 cups – some food stores sell fresh or frozen grated cauliflower if you want to cut back on prep time).
Stir grated cauliflower into chili (15 minutes after you add hominy); cook 15 minutes and remove from heat. Stir in chopped cilantro; season with salt and pepper. Serve topped with sliced red jalapeno and cilantro leaves.
Serving size: 1 c
Notes
If the chili gets too thick, just loosen it with a little water or more broth.
