Everyday Paleo Chili Colorado
4 cups water
7 dried New Mexico chilies (I use El Guapo brand for all the dried chilies, found at most major grocery stores)
3 dried California chilies
3 dried Chile de Arbol
1 yellow onion, diced
5 garlic cloves, minced or 2 teaspoons crushed garlic
2 tablespoons coconut oil
2.5 lbs beef stew meat or pork
2 tablespoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons dried oregano
2 cups beef broth
2 – 6oz cans of tomato paste
Black pepper and sea salt to taste
1 can of green chiles or fresh hatch smoked chiles
Rinse
the dried chilies and place them in a pot with the 4 cups of water.
Bring to a boil, turn the heat off and let the chilies soak in the water
for 30 minutes. While the chilies are soaking, dice your onion and
garlic. Heat the oil in a large soup pot and add the onions. Cook the
onions until they start to brown. Add the garlic and the beef to the
onions and brown the beef for 7-10 minutes. Add the beef broth, tomato
paste, cumin, green chiles,oregano, salt and pepper to the beef. Bring to a boil,
turn down to medium low or low and let simmer. While the beef is
simmering, it’s time to prepare the peppers. Remove the stems from the
peppers and place the peppers in a food processor with half of the
liquid that the peppers were boiling in. Pulse the peppers until smooth.
Using a sieve, pour the ground peppers through the sieve and into the
pot with the beef. Use a spoon to help the contents through the sieve,
leaving behind the seeds and any of bits of pepper skin. Pour the
remaining cooking liquid through the sieve as well into the pot. Bring
to a boil, turn back down to low and let the Colorado simmer for 2 hours
or until your meat is tender. Serve with avocado and cilantro. Serves
6.
Enjoy!!!
