Prep vegetables, quinoa, and beans
Cutting Board
Chef’s knife
Fine-mesh strainer

Dice the onion, red bell pepper, and poblano, then rinse the quinoa and drain and rinse the black beans.

Keep the knife blade angled away from fingers while dicing the vegetables.

1 cup yellow onion
1 Count red bell pepper
1 Count poblano pepper
3/4 cup quinoa
2 cans black beans
2
Sauté the vegetables
Wooden spoon
Stovetop
Large pot with lid

Heat the oil in a 6-quart pot over medium heat. Add the onion and peppers; cook for 6–8 minutes, until softened.

Keep the pot handle turned inward while cooking on the stovetop.

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup yellow onion
1 Count red bell pepper
1 Count poblano pepper
3
Bloom the spices
Wooden spoon
Large pot with lid

Stir in chili powder, smoked paprika, and cumin and cook for 30 seconds until the spices are fragrant and evenly coating the vegetables.

2 tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
2 teaspoons ground cumin
4
Add liquids and bring to a simmer
Wooden spoon
Large pot with lid

Add quinoa, black beans, diced tomatoes, frozen corn, and vegetable broth. Scrape the bottom of the pot, then bring to a steady simmer.

Stir carefully, since thick chili can bubble and splatter.

3/4 cup quinoa
2 cans black beans
2 cans tomatoes
1 1/2 cups corn
3 cups vegetable broth
5
Cook until quinoa is tender
Wooden spoon
Stovetop
Large pot with lid

Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer for 20–22 minutes, stirring halfway. Continue until quinoa is tender with visible spirals and chili thick and stew-like.

Use dry oven mitts when handling the hot pot and lid.

6
Thicken and rest
Wooden spoon
Large pot with lid

Simmer uncovered for 3–5 minutes to thicken if needed. Rest off the heat for 5 minutes, then serve hot.

Stir carefully, since thick chili can bubble and splatter.
