1 large garlic clove, minced
1 red bell pepper, preferably organic, seeded and chopped
1/2 pound ground chicken, preferably organic
1 (15-ounce) can diced fire-roasted tomatoes with green chiles
1 (15-ounce) can tomato sauce
1 (15-ounce) can red kidney beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 cup Crunch Time peanut butter OR Smooth Operator peanut butter

Ammu,
I agree that peanut butter goes with almost anything! I’d love to hear how the chili comes out if you decide to make it.
Yes! This is something I would definitely make while we’re still having this kind of weather in CT. I couldn’t think of a better dish to serve on a Sunday afternoon with friends. That and salad, conrbread, and beer would cap the weekend nicely!
