Kalamata olives melt into this Greek-American lamb chili, adding a briny, savory depth. Topped with crumbled feta and fresh mint, it's unlike any chili you've had.

Serving suggestions
Feta and mint aren't garnish, they're the point — the cool tang against the warm lamb is the whole idea.
Substitutions & tips
Warm pita or orzo alongside leans into the Greek theme. Ground beef works if lamb's unavailable, though you lose some richness. A squeeze of lemon brightens it further.
