Total time: 4 hr 45 min • Prep: 35 min • Cook: 4 hr 10 min • Serves: 6 • Difficulty: Easy
Packed with vegetables and flavour, the chili gets its depth from chocolate without tasting overtly like chocolate. For a little ZeroPoint heat, add 1 or 2 finely chopped jalapeños. Thinly sliced radishes make a pretty garnish.
