Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the Italian sausage until crumbled and browned. Transfer to a large Dutch oven. (5-7 minutes)

02

Step

Sear the venison cubes in the same skillet until well-browned on all sides. Add the seared venison to the Dutch oven with the sausage. Add ground venison, and cook until crumbly and no longer pink; place into Dutch oven. (8-10 minutes)

03

Step

Heat olive oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced crimini mushrooms and cook until softened. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Stir in the diced onion and minced garlic, cooking until the onion becomes translucent. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Add the diced green and red peppers, chopped red chile peppers, and minced jalapeno to the skillet. Cook until softened, then add the mixture to the Dutch oven. (5 minutes)

06

Step

Stir in the tomato paste, tomato sauce, black beans, diced tomatoes (with their liquid), and water into the Dutch oven. Season with chili powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, and dried oregano. (2 minutes)

07

Step

Bring the chili to a simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the venison pieces are tender. (2 hours)

08

Step

Season the chili to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in the minced fresh parsley just before serving.

09

Step

Serve hot, topped with shredded Cheddar cheese.

For a richer flavor, consider browning the ground venison and venison cubes in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Adjust the amount of chili powder, cayenne pepper, and jalapenos to your desired level of spice.
If the chili becomes too thick during simmering, add more water to reach your desired consistency.
This chili tastes even better the next day, as the flavors have more time to meld together.
