I'm from Southern California. You can not find a restaurant that does not have these hot Mexican carrots. Being on the East Coast now, I have had to come up with my own version to duplicate the hot carrots of home.
Ingredients
- 6 carrots , peeled and sliced
- 1 jar sliced jalapeno peppers , 16 ounce
- 2 onions , thinly sliced
- 1 cup vinegar
Instructions
-
1
Place carrots in a saucepan with enough water to cover and cook over medium heat until nearly boiling, 7 to 10 minutes. Immediately drain carrots and set aside to cool.
-
2
Divide cooled carrots into two 1-quart glass jars. Alternate layers of onion and jalapeño peppers atop carrots until the jars are full.
-
3
Mix the liquid from jalapeño peppers and vinegar in a saucepan; bring the mixture to a rolling boil. Remove from heat and pour the liquid into the jars until full. Seal the jars with lids. Place the jars in the refrigerator until cold, at least 8 hours.

Instant Pot Venison Chili
Chili is one of my favorite ways to utilize the abundance of ground meat you get with a deer. I like to use my Instant Pot to eliminate the mess it makes on the stovetop as it simmers. It is also done much quicker. I haven't seen a recipe here so I thought I would share. Top with sour cream, cheese, and onions if desired.
