Preparation
1
Roast sweet potatoes

  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 425˚F.
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • Peel, then cut sweet potatoes into 1/2-inch pieces. 
  • To an unlined baking sheet, add sweet potatoes, half the Mexican Seasoning and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil. 
  • Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
  • Roast in the middle of the oven for 18-20 min, flipping halfway through, until tender and golden.

2
Start chili

  • Heat a large pot over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then beef.
  • Cook for 4-5 min, breaking up beef into smaller pieces, until no pink remains.**
  • Add Tex-Mex paste and remaining Mexican Seasoning. 
  • Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until fragrant and well combined. 
  • Season with pepper.

3
Finish chili and cook bacon

  • Add broth concentrate, beans (including their liquid), crushed tomatoes and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar. (TIP: If you prefer more liquid in your chili, add water 1 tbsp at a time!) 
  • Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer for 6-9 min, stirring occasionally, until chili thickens slightly.
  • Season with salt and pepper.

4
Finish and serve

  • Stir sweet potatoes into chili.
  • Roughly chop bacon.
  • Divide chili between bowls. Top with baon and cheese.
  • Dollop sour cream over top.

5

If you've opted to add bacon, cut strips in half crosswise. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium. When hot, add bacon. Cook for 5-7 min, flipping occasionally, until crispy.** Remove from heat. Using tongs, transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Set aside.

Roughly chop bacon. Divide chili between bowls. Top with baon and cheese.
