Ingredients
- Begin by heating a tablespoon of olive oil in a pan, allowing it to shimmer warmly.
- Prepare five carrots, skillfully sliced into bite-sized pieces, adding a vibrant touch to the dish.
- Next, add the sweetness of a finely chopped onion along with five cloves of garlic, both enhancing the flavors.
- Sprinkle in a tablespoon of chili powder, followed by two teaspoons of smoked paprika, infusing a depth of smokiness.
- For a hint of richness, incorporate a teaspoon each of garlic powder and ground cumin into the mix.
- Crumble an eight-ounce package of tempeh, adding a wholesome plant-based protein element to the dish.
- Introduce the colors of nature with cut red, yellow, and orange bell peppers, each offering a burst of freshness.
- Pour in a 28-ounce can of crushed tomatoes, providing a luscious base for the stew.
- Enhance the texture with a mix of drained and rinsed black, cannellini, and red kidney beans from 15-ounce cans.
- Add a can of whole kernel corn for a touch of sweetness and crunch, harmonizing with the medley of flavors.
- Finally, sprinkle a tablespoon of brown sugar, balancing the savory notes with a hint of sweetness.
Step 1
Begin by warming up some olive oil in a pot set over medium-high heat. Throw in the carrots and sauté until they become tender, which should take roughly 5 minutes.
Step 2
Next, introduce the onion and chopped garlic to the mix and continue cooking and stirring until a delightful aroma fills the air, usually around 3 minutes.
Step 3
Sprinkle in some chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, and cumin, and let them sizzle for about a minute, infusing the dish with a burst of flavors.
Step 4
Now, it's time to add the tempeh, along with vibrant red, yellow, and orange bell peppers. Toss everything together until the tempeh is beautifully coated with the aromatic spices, which should take about 5 minutes of stirring and cooking.
Step 5
To enhance the dish further, pour in a mixture of tomatoes, black beans, cannellini beans, kidney beans, corn, and a hint of brown sugar into the pot with the tempeh.
Step 6
Lower the heat and let it all simmer gently, covered, allowing the flavors to meld together harmoniously for approximately 30 minutes. Enjoy the rich and hearty stew that results from this flavorful cooking process.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Start by organizing your pantry shelves with clear containers for your spices, beans, and canned tomatoes. This will make it easy to grab what you need for your vegan chili recipe without rummaging through clutter.
- 2. Utilize mason jars or glass containers to store your freshly chopped veggies like bell peppers, onions, and garlic. Not only does this keep them fresh longer, but it also adds a pop of color to your kitchen decor.
