CHICKEN-CACTUS CHILI
Ingredients:
½ onion, diced
½ cup sliced or diced nopales cactus
1.5 pounds chicken, diced
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 can diced tomatoes
1 can chili beans
1 (small) can tomato sauce
In a pan, sauté the onions until they’re soft. Add the cactus and chicken and continue sautéing until the chicken is fully cooked. While the chicken is cooking, you may want to add black pepper, red pepper, or any other seasonings that you feel are appropriate.
Once the chicken is ready, dump in the tomatoes (don’t drain their juices), tomato sauce, and chili beans. Add the chili powder and stir it all together. Put a cover on it; let it simmer for 20 minutes and you’ll be ready to treat yourself to a unique and delicious chili.

Jake...don't use tomato product or chile powder mixes...they'll darken the batch...also, no beef stock or red wine...adapt one of the suggested chile recipes and you'll figure it out...cheers!
