To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |

Customize It Instructions

  • Meatlovers! If using protein, cook in a medium non-stick pan over medium heat with 1 tsp. olive oil. If using whole chicken breasts, pat dry and, on a separate cutting board, cut into 1” dice. Stir occasionally until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes. If using ground beef, break up beef until no pink remains and beef reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes. If using Impossible burger, break up burger until heated through, 4-6 minutes. Add to chili as desired.

  1. 1

    Prepare Ingredients and Make Chipotle Crema

    Drain black beans.

    Coarsely chop cauliflower into bite-sized pieces,

    Trim green onions and thinly slice, keeping white and green portions separate.

    Stem poblano pepper, seed, and cut into 1/2" dice. Poblano peppers can vary in spice level; most are mild, but a few can be quite hot. Wash hands and cutting board after prepping.

    In a mixing bowl, stir chipotle crema and 1 tsp. water until combined. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Start the Chili

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add white portions of green onions, cauliflower, poblano, and seasoning blend to hot pan. Stir occasionally until browned, 5-7 minutes.

    Add 2 Tbsp. water. Cover, and cook until tender, 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add the Beans and Salsa

    Add black beans, salsa, mirepoix base, 1/4 tsp. salt, and 2 cups water. Stir to combine, then bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, stir occasionally until beans are heated through, 3-5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Finish the Chili

    In another mixing bowl, combine cornstarch and 1/2 cup water until cornstarch is completely dissolved.

    Add cornstarch-water mixture to pan. Stir constantly until cornstarch-water mixture is incorporated and chili thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon, 5-6 minutes.

    Remove from burner.

  5. 5

    Finish the Dish

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping chili with crema, green portions of green onions, and tortilla strips. Bon appétit!
