Cooking Instructions

Hide images
step 1
In a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat, add the Olive Oil (1 Tbsp). Once hot add the Yellow Onion (1) and Garlic (3 cloves) to the skillet and stir fry until fragrant. Add Beyond Meat® Beef Ground (8 oz) and continue to cook until onions are beginning to soften for about 5-6 minutes.
step 2
Add the Chili Powder (2 Tbsp), Smoked Paprika (1 Tbsp), Ground Cumin (1 Tbsp), Tomato Paste (1 can), Salt (1/2 tsp), and Granulated Sugar (1/2 tsp). Cook for another 5 minutes.
step 3
Add the Red Kidney Beans (1 can), Diced Tomatoes (1 can), Vegetable Broth (1 cup), and Soy Sauce (1 tsp). Stir to combine and bring up any bits from the bottom and then cook for an additional 10 minutes (up to an hour).
step 4
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
step 5
While the chili is simmering, prepare the cornbread in a medium mixing bowl by combining Cornbread Mix (1 box), Egg (1), Milk (1 cup), and Canola Oil (1/2 cup).
step 6
Once the chili is cooked, pour the cornbread batter over the top and bake for 10-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cornbread comes out clean.
step 7
Let cool and serve with Sour Cream (to taste), Scallions (to taste), and Shredded Cheddar Cheese (to taste), or any other toppings of your choice.
