This Chorizo Sweet Potato Chili is the perfect mix of spicy sausage and sweet, creamy sweet potatoes. Easy, filling, and delicious!
Instructions
1
Squeeze the chorizo out of its casing and into a large pot. Cook the chorizo over medium heat, breaking it up as it browns. After it is fully browned, drain the excess fat from the pot (if desired).
2
While the chorizo is browning, dice the onion and mince the garlic.
3
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pot after draining the fat. Continue to stir and cook.
4
Peel the sweet potato and cut it into 1/2 inch cubes. Add the diced sweet potato to the pot and continue to stir and cook.
5
Rinse and drain the canned kidney and black beans in a colander. Add the beans to the pot along with the diced tomatoes (with juices), tomato paste, chili powder, cumin, oregano, and water.
6
Stir until everything is well combined. Place a lid on the pot and allow the chili to come up to a simmer. Let it simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until the sweet potatoes have softened.
7
Serve hot, topped with sliced green onions.
