Texas Style Chili Recipe
/Skinner® Pasta offers Texas shaped pasta and it’s the perfect base for any pasta dish especially deep in the heart of Texas! One of the other things that Andrew and I learned after moving to Texas is that Texas loves jalapeños. Everything in Texas has a little kick to it!
Ingredients:
- 12 oz Skinner® Texas Shape
- 1 tsp vegetable oil
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 1 each onion, chopped
- 1 tsp garlic clove, chopped
- 1 cup green bell pepper, chopped
- 1 1/4 oz dry chili seasoning mix
- 15 oz petite diced tomatoes with jalapeños
- 8 oz tomato sauce
- 15 oz pinto beans with jalapeños, drained and rinsed
- 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese (optional)
Directions:
- Cook pasta according to package directions.
- Heat oil in a large non-stick saucepan. Add ground beef and brown. Add onion, garlic and green pepper. Stir in chili seasoning mix, tomatoes and tomato sauce. Cook for 5 minutes.
- Add beans and heat for 5 more minutes. Serve over pasta and garnish with cheese, if desired.
What makes this dish perfect is the Skinner Pasta. It’s great tasting, budget-friendly, and easy to cook! Skinner has so many products available like spaghetti, fettuccine, elbows, and penne, plus options like dumplings or fideo mediano, and of course, a fun Texas shape!
While Andrew and I were so lucky to have minimal damages from Hurricane Harvey, many Houstonians were not as fortunate. There were many Skinner employees affected by the flooding, which served as a call-of-action for their headquarters. As many local businesses did, Skinner stepped up to help! They are donating 37,000 servings of pasta and rice to the Houston Food Bank. They also set up a food truck, traveling to areas of the city devastated by the flood and offering free hot meals to those who needed it most. That is pasta that makes us smile! It’s no doubt that Skinner Past is proud of its home state!
