Instructions
In a Dutch oven or soup kettle, saute onion and garlic in oil for 5 minutes.
Add carrot, celery, green pepper and green onions; cook for 7 minutes or until crisp-tender.
Add mushrooms, olives and tomato paste; blend well.
Add remaining ingredients; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for at least 3 hours.
Recommended wine: Cava, Shiraz, Grenache
Chili can be paired with Cava, Shiraz, and Grenache. 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 Sangre de Toro Cava with a 4.6 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 13 dollars per bottle.
Sangre de Toro Cava
Pale yellow with fine and persistent perlage. Intense. Floral and fresh fruit aromas in perfect harmony with citrus and aniseed notes. Creamy bubbles, luscious and fresh.Lovely as an aperitif or paired with fish and seafood.
