Title: Smoky Spicy Chili
Categories: Chili
Yield: 6 Servings

1 tb Olive oil -OR-
1/4 c Water
1 lg Sweet onion; chopped
2 cl Garlic; minced
2 Chipotle chiles in adobo;
- minced
2 tb Chili powder
1 ts Ground cumin
1/2 ts Ground cinnamon
1 ts Salt
1 ts Smoked paprika
28 oz Can diced fire-roasted
- tomatoes; undrained
1/4 c Tomato paste
1 1/2 c Water
3 c Cooked kidney beans -OR-
30 oz Beans (2 cans);
- rinsed & drained
2 c Seitan; finely chopped -OR-
2 c Reconstituted soy curls or
- TVP
1 ts Liquid smoke
1/4 c Smoked almonds;
- crushed, for garnish

I like to accompany this chili with brown basmati rice. The roasted
almonds add an unexpected crunch.

Heat the olive oil or water in a large pot over medium heat. Add the
onion, garlic, and chiles. Cover and cook until softened, about 5
minutes. Stir in the chili powder, cumin, cinnamon, salt, and
paprika. Add the tomatoes and their juice, tomato paste, water, and
beans. Stir to combine and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low,
stir in the seitan, and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stir in the liquid smoke. Taste and adjust the seasonings. Serve hot,
garnished with the almonds.
