20-MINUTE VEGETARIAN WHITE BEAN CHILI



20-Minute Vegetarian White Bean Chili image

I'm always surprised by how complex this tastes considering it only takes 20 minutes! Three kinds of beans add interest to this simple (and fast) vegetarian/vegan white bean chili recipe. A weeknight go-to around here!

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 23

2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 medium yellow onion (diced) (about 1 cup)
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt + more to taste
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper + more to taste
3 medium cloves garlic (peeled and minced)
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth*
1 (15-ounce) can cannellini beans, rinsed
1 (15-ounce) can navy beans, rinsed
1 15-ounce can chickpeas, rinsed
1 4-ounce can diced green chiles
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/8-1/4 teaspoon ground (cayenne red pepper) (use less for less heat)
Juice of 1 medium lime
Fresh cilantro
Lime wedges to squeeze over the top
Sliced scallions
Diced onions
Grated cheese or vegan cheese
Diced avocado
Sour cream or cashew sour cream
A dash or two of Green Tabasco

Steps:

  • Set a medium-to-large pot over low heat. Add the olive oil, onion, oregano, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Cook the onion, stirring occasionally, until soft and translucent, about 8 minutes.
  • Add the garlic and cumin. Cook, stirring frequently, for another minute.
  • Add the broth, beans, chiles, cloves, and cayenne. Stir to combine. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 3-5 more minutes until thickened a tiny bit.
  • Remove from heat. Run a potato masher or fork through 5-6 times just to smash a few of the beans and help thicken it all up. Squeeze the lime over the top and stir. Taste and add additional salt and pepper if desired.
  • Serve with assorted toppings if desired. I'm partial to this vegan cashew sour cream - yum!

White Bean Chili with Herbed Yogurt Cheese image

Yield serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 25

3 cups dried navy or other white beans
2 small poblano chiles
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 onion, cut into 1/4-inch dice
1 large carrot, cut into 1/4-inch dice
2 stalks celery, cut into 1/4-inch dice
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
30 ounces homemade or low-sodium store-bought chicken stock, skimmed of fat
8 cups water
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 radishes, grated
Cilantro sprigs, for garnish
Herbed Yogurt Cheese (recipe follows)
1 8-ounce container plain fat-free yogurt
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
Pinch of freshly ground pepper
(makes about 1 cup)

Steps:

  • Pick over the dried beans, discarding any stones or broken beans; rinse. Place in a large saucepan, cover with cold water by 2 inches, and bring to a strong boil over high heat. Cover, and remove from heat; let stand 1 hour. Drain the beans; set aside.
  • Meanwhile, place the peppers directly on a gas burner over high heat or on a grill. As they turn black, turn with tongs. (Alternatively, place the peppers on a baking pan; broil in the oven, turning as the peppers become charred.) Transfer the charred peppers to a medium bowl; cover with plastic wrap. Let the peppers rest 15 minutes. Transfer to a work surface (do not rinse). Peel off the blackened skin; discard. Halve the peppers; remove the seeds and ribs and discard. Cut the peppers into 1/4-inch pieces; set aside.
  • Heat the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic, onion, carrot, and celery. Cover; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and slightly browned, about 15 minutes. Add the cumin, coriander, paprika, and cayenne, if using; stir to combine. Stir in the stock, water, beans, and half the roasted poblano chiles. Cover; cook until the beans are soft, about 1 1/2 hours. Uncover; simmer gently until the beans begin to fall apart, about 30 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper. Serve the chili garnished with the remaining poblano chiles, radish, cilantro, and yogurt cheese, if desired.
  • Line a colander or strainer with several thicknesses of cheesecloth; set over a bowl. Add the yogurt; drain for 1 hour. Transfer the yogurt to bowl of food processor; add the lime juice, cilantro, parsley, salt, and pepper. Purée until well combined. Chill until ready to use, up to 1 week.
