Everything But The Kitchen Sink Paleo Chili

My mom would call this slop, but I call it Paleo chili. :) by Marla Starr, updated January 28, 2015 Posted on January 24, 2013

When you’ve got a lot of oddball ingredients lying around, say after preparing a tapas style menu, I find the easiest way to utilize them is to throw ’em all together. My mom would call this slop, but I’m gonna call it chili. :)

To me chili is just an overall term used to describe a conglomerate of veggies, some liquid and some protein thrown together in a pot that will simmer for an hour or more to bring out the flavors. Well, I bet that just made this sound super appetizing.

Paleo Chili

Anyway, chili is another dish that’s perfect to serve up on game day. After all the chopping and stirring, the pot does the rest of the work. If this veggie-heavy chili doesn’t sound appealing to you, I’ve got a few more options that may win you over.

Paleo Pumpkin Chili and Prime Time Chili with Bacon are a couple more Paleo chilis that I’ve made in the past.

You can also make chili in the crockpot using a grass-fed beef chuck roast or even chicken breast. In Pigskin Paleo, my Paleo cookbook, you’ll find the Mathematics for making Perfect Paleo Chili.

This recipe is part of my series of game day recipes that I’m posting every weekday until Super Bowl Sunday. Along with Prosciutto Apple Crostini there are a few more finger food recipes listed below that will be perfect to serve for your Paleo Super Bowl menu. Also, pick up a copy of Pigskin Paleo before the big game and if you absolutely love it we’d love for you to leave a review on Amazon. :)

Everything But The Kitchen Sink Paleo Chili

Yield: 8-10 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 yellow summer squash, chopped
  • 2 carrots, large chunks
  • 1 sweet potato, large chunks
  • 1 leek, sliced
  • 1 banana pepper, chopped
  • 1 jalapeño pepper, chopped
  • 2 pounds grass-fed ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon coarse ground sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons Penzey's Chili 9000 chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 26.46oz Pomi strained tomatoes
  • 1 avocado, chopped
  • 1 bunch fresh chives, minced

Directions

  1. Melt the coconut oil in a deep pot over medium heat.
  2. Add the onion and garlic and cook about 5 minutes.
  3. Next add the squash, carrots, sweet potato, leek, banana pepper and jalapeño pepper to the pot. Stir everything well to combine all the veggies. Let that cook for 5-10 minutes or until the carrots and sweet potato start to get soft.
  4. After 5-10 minutes scoot the veggies off to one side of the pot and throw the ground beef in the space you cleared.
  5. After a few minutes mix the meat and veggies around to combine. Add the salt, pepper, chili powder, garlic powder and strained tomatoes and mix to combine.
  6. Increase the heat to medium-high until the chili comes to a boil then cover and bring the heat down to medium-low and let it simmer for 1 hour.
  7. Keep an eye on it, but since you lowered the heat it shouldn't boil over. Give it a swirl a couple times in that hour and when time's up, give it a taste. It should be ready to roll.
  8. Serve up a bowl or two and top with avocado and chives.
  9. Enjoy! :)
