Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Hearty Venison Burger and Steak Chili.
Step 1
Start by heating a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Add the bulk mild Italian sausage and cook it until it’s nicely crumbled and browned, filling your kitchen with a delicious aroma.
Step 3
Once it’s cooked, transfer the sausage to a spacious Dutch oven, setting the stage for a hearty chili.
Step 4
In the same skillet, sear the cubed lean venison until it’s beautifully browned, then add it to the Dutch oven with the sausage, creating a flavorful base.
Step 5
Next, toss in the ground venison to the skillet and cook it until it’s crumbly and no longer pink.
Step 6
Once it’s ready, join it in the Dutch oven, where all those savory flavors will meld together.
Step 7
Now, let’s add some veggies! Drizzle olive oil into the skillet and heat it up.
Step 8
Add the sliced crimini mushrooms and sauté them until they’re soft, which should take about two minutes.
Step 9
Then, stir in the diced onion and minced garlic, cooking until the onion turns translucent and fragrant, another two minutes.
Step 10
It’s time to bring in the colorful peppers! Add the diced green and red peppers, along with the seeded and chopped red chile peppers and minced jalapeño peppers.
Step 11
Cook this vibrant mixture until the peppers soften, then transfer everything to the Dutch oven, where the magic happens.
Step 12
In the Dutch oven, stir in the tomato paste, tomato sauce, rinsed black beans, and diced tomatoes with their juices.
Step 13
Add enough water to reach your desired chili consistency, making it just right for your taste.
Step 14
Now, let’s spice things up! Season the mixture with chili powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, and dried oregano.
Step 15
Bring the chili to a lively simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low.
Step 16
Cover the pot and let it simmer gently for about two hours, allowing the venison to become tender and the flavors to deepen.
Step 17
Before serving, take a moment to taste your creation and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
Step 18
Stir in some freshly minced parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
Step 19
Finally, serve your chili hot, generously topped with shredded Cheddar cheese, and enjoy the warmth and comfort of this delicious dish!.
