Quinoa White Chicken Chili might be just the American recipe you are searching for. One serving contains 471 calories, 40g of protein, and 11g of fat. For $2.53 per serving, you get a main course that serves 4. If you have lime juice, onion, quinoa, and a few other ingredients on hand, you can make it. To use up the onion you could follow this main course with the Candy Corn Cupcakes as a dessert. It can be enjoyed any time, but it is especially good for The Super Bowl. It is a good option if you're following a gluten free and dairy free diet.

Recommended wine: Cava, Grenache, Shiraz

Cava, Grenache, and Shiraz are great choices for Chili. These juicy reds don't have too much tannin (important for spicy foods), but a sparkling wine like cava can tame the heat even better. The Marques de Caceres Cava with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 16 dollars per bottle.
