- 2 Tbsp. chili powder
- 1 to 2 Tbsp. cayenne pepper or black
- 1 to 2 tsp. each: oregano, basil and parsley
Method
- Fully cook sausage, breaking up with spoonfuls, skin off. Drain off fat.
- In another pan with enough olive oil, saute peppers, onion, celery and garlic until soft, not brown.
- Add sausage, beans with liquid, tomatoes and seasonings.
- Heat on "high" to a boil.
- Lower and simmer 45 minutes (good when you can make ahead, refrigerate and skim fat off the top.
- Heat slowly, don't let stick to pan).
- Cook small macaroni like chili mac or ditalini or elbow.
- Add however much you like hot to hot chili. Pass grated Italian cheese; we use Pecorino Romano.
- Feeds a crowd!
