Just made this to celebrate first weekend of NFL Football (GO BILLS!!). I changed up the recipe for the chili a bit (used frest jalapeno, half soyrizo and half soy crumbles, petite cut tomatoes with peppers, and added a can of chili beans)-- but LOVED the technique of cooking it in the onion. Unfortunely the red onions at my store didn't look so hot, so I put this in large sweet white onions. I just used the cooking spray instead of pastry brush with olive oil. They came out amazingly well. DH and I decided this would be perfect for tailgating-- make up at home, wrap in foil, and then throw on the grill at the game. Thank you so much for posting!!! I know it is going to become one of our favorites this season!! :D

Red Onion Chili
Recipe By :Pittsburgh Post
Serving Size : 0 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Soups
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 large red onions
Olive oil
1 small red bell pepper -- finely diced
2 tablespoons diced pickled jalapeno peppers
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 1/2 teaspoons brown sugar
2 cloves garlic -- minced
2 cups soy "ground beef"
1 can diced tomatoes -- (14 ounce)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper -- to taste
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
To prepare the onion, trim the ends and peel away any dry skin. Use a melon baller to hollow out each onion, leaving about 1/3 inch of flesh all around. Finely dice 1 cup of the removed onion, saving the remainder for another use.
Use a pastry brush to coat the inside and outside of each onion with olive oil. Alternatively, spray each with cooking oil.
Heat an additional 2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium skillet over a medium flame. Add the diced onion and red and jalapeno peppers. Saute, stirring frequently, until tender, about 5 minutes.
Add the chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano and brown sugar. Cook 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the garlic and cook an additional minute.
Add soy beef and tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until hot, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and season with salt and pepper.
Carefully spoon enough chili into each onion so that it mounds gently over the top. Arrange the onions on a small, rimmed baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes.
Remove the onions from the oven and top each with 1/4 cup cheese. Return to the oven and cook another 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted and slightly browned.
