  • Instructions


    In a Dutch oven over medium heat, cook beef, onions, and green peppers until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add the next nine ingredients; bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
    To make biscuits, combine flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. In a separate bowl, beat egg, milk, and sour cream until smooth; stir into dry ingredients until just moistened.
    Transfer chili to an ungreased 13-x-9-x-2-inch baking dish. Drop batter by heaping teaspoonfuls onto hot chili. Bake, uncovered, at 400° for 17 minutes or until biscuits are lightly browned.
