INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked black beans (182g)
1 cup cooked lentils (198g)
1/2 cup diced tomatoes (123g)
1 medium red bell pepper (45g)
1 small yellow onion (70g)
1 teaspoon olive oil (4.5g)
2 cloves minced garlic (6g)
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 pinch sea salt
1 pinch black pepper
PREPARATION
Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion, red bell pepper, and minced garlic; sauté until the vegetables soften, about 4-5 minutes.
Stir in the chili powder, ground cumin, and smoked paprika, allowing the spices to bloom for about 1 minute.
Add the cooked black beans, cooked lentils, and diced tomatoes to the pan. Stir to combine everything well.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then reduce heat and let it cook for 10-15 minutes to allow flavors to meld. If the chili thickens too much, add a splash of water.
Season with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper to taste. Adjust spices if necessary.
Serve warm, and enjoy your hearty plant-based black bean and lentil chili.
