Sweet Potato and Black Bean Chili

Prep time: 30 minutes
Cook time: 60 minutes
Servings: 6

Circulon Symmetry Chocolate 5.5-Quart Casserole
6 slices thick-cut smoked bacon, chopped
1 pound sweet potatoes, peeled and diced into 3/4-inch pieces
2 medium onions, chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
5 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon ground chipotle pepper
2 cups chicken broth
1 can (14 1/2 ounces) no-salt-added fire-roasted diced tomatoes
1 can (15 ounces) no-salt-added black beans
1/2 cup quick-cooking barley
1/2 teaspoon salt

Heat casserole over medium heat. Add bacon and cook until browned and crisp, about 7-8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to a paper towel-covered plate.
Reduce bacon fat in the casserole to 2 tablespoons and return to the stove over medium-high heat. Add sweet potatoes, onions, and jalapeno pepper; cook, stirring occasionally until onion is slightly softened, about 5 minutes.
Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Stir in chili powder, cumin, oregano, and ground chipotle; cook until fragrant, 15 seconds.
Pour in broth, tomatoes, beans, and barley; reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until sweet potatoes are tender and barley is cooked for about 20 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in bacon and salt; let stand 15 minutes before serving.
