    Chunky Beef Posole Chili

    Recipe courtesy Michael Lomonaco. All rights reserved.

    Ingredients:

    2 lbs. beef shoulder or bottom round stew meat, cut into 1-1/2" cubes
    Salt and pepper to taste
    3 Tbs. olive oil, vegetable oil or lard
    2 onions, chopped, about 1-1/2 cups
    2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped
    1 Tbs. ground cumin
    2 Tbs. chipotle chili paste (2 to 3 dried chipotle peppers, soaked, seeded and pureed)
    2 Tbs. garlic, chopped
    1/2 cup crushed tomatoes
    1/4 cup grits
    2 cups water
    1/4 cup roughly chopped cilantro leaves
    1/2 cup chopped scallions
    Sour cream
    Corn tortillas, toasted and crumbled

    Preparation:

    Season beef with salt and pepper; saute in 3 tablespoons oil in a large, heavy earthenware casserole or stew pot until well browned.

    Remove the beef and set aside in a bowl. Add chopped onions and seeded and chopped jalapeno peppers to the pot; brown until golden. When the onion has begun to caramelize, add the beef; sprinkle with ground cumin and stir in chipotle paste, chopped garlic, crushed tomatoes, grits and water. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and allow to cook gently until tender, approximately 1-1/4 hours.

    Adjust the seasoning and serve with cilantro, scallions, sour cream and toasted and crumbled corn tortillas sprinkled on top.

    Servings: 4 to 6
