Need Head to the store and pick up butter, lime juice, poblano chilies, and a few other things to make it today. It can be enjoyed any time, but it is especially good for The Super Bowl. This recipe is typical of American cuisine. From preparation to the plate, this recipe takes approximately 45 minutes. These Southwest style egg rolls are delicious.

Recommended wine: Cava, Grenache, Shiraz

Cava, Grenache, and Shiraz are my top picks 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. You could try Marques de Caceres Cava. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 16 dollars per bottle.
