Instructions
 Place the oil and onions in a heavy pot over low heat. Cook for 10 minutes to wilt, adding the garlic in the last 2 minutes. Stir often. Add the ground beef then raise heat to medium. Cook until browned, breaking up the lumps, about 10 minutes. Remove any excess grease.

Add the cocoa and spices; cook, stirring, for 1 minute.

Add the tomatoes, tomato paste, vinegar, and honey. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook for 20 to 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Just before serving, cook the linguine noodles in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender, 8 to 10 minutes, then drain.

To serve, divide the noodles among 8 shallow pasta bowls. Top with chili; garnish with the kidney beans, grated cheese, and scallions. Serve immediately.

Main Ingredient :  

When preparing meat for the chili, don't be light-handed with the spices; this is where the intense flavor should come from. Be sure to serve the meal in bowls piled high for a fun presentation. Scallions are used instead of regular onions because their mild flavor is more pleasing. New Page 1
