How to Make Spicy Black Bean and Sweet Potato Chili

1. Sauté Onion and Garlic

Heat the coconut oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion with a pinch of kosher salt, sautéing until translucent and soft, about 5 minutes. Add the smashed and roughly chopped garlic cloves and stir for about 1 minute until fragrant.

2. Add Spices and Deglaze

Sprinkle in the light brown sugar, ground cumin, garlic powder, and onion powder. Pour in the orange juice and simmer, deglazing the pot by scraping any browned bits.

3. Combine Remaining Ingredients

Stir in the chipotles in adobo, adobo sauce, sweet potatoes, black beans, and crushed tomatoes. Add the lime juice and water to cover the ingredients if necessary. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer covered for 30-45 minutes or until sweet potatoes are tender.

4. Finish with Corn

Stir in the frozen corn and cook just until heated through.
