This was from a day where I dumped whatever sounded good into a pot and called it lunch, for better or for worse. Turned out to be definitely for better:)
Ingredients:
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 garlic clove, chopped
1 tablespoon onion, chopped
1 cup chicken stock
1/4 cup split red lentils
3 artichoke hearts, diced
2 sun-dried tomatoes, diced
1 chipotle chile in adobo, diced
1 -2 teaspoon adobo sauce
1 pinch brown sugar
5 chocolate chips
salt & pepper
1 tablespoon yogurt
Directions:
1. Heat oil in sauce pot and saute garlic and onion.
2. Add stock and heat to a simmer.
3. Add lentils, artichokes, tomatoes, chile, adobo sauce (add 1 or 2 t, depending on how spicy you like things), brown sugar, and chocolate.
4. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
5. Simmer covered for 15 minutes.
6. Adjust seasoning to taste with salt and pepper.
7. Pour into serving bowl and stir in yogurt (or sour cream, whatever you prefer to cut the heat).
