Smokey Habanero Chili

Yeah I know. Look at this dish. Absolutely drool worthy, even for me! The trick is to use only a little bit of habanero, no seeds, and make sure you balance it out with a lot of smokey paprika. And, as always, taste taste taste! That is the biggest tip I can give you about cooking. That and trust your instincts. The worse thing that happens is that it comes out terrible… and that’s where taste taste taste comes in.
