Preheat oven to 425˚F.
Line a large baking sheet [3] with parchment. Add the diced potatoes, spray with oil and season with salt, pepper and granulated garlic, roast 35-40 minutes to evenly golden and crisp, turning occasionally.
Add oil to a Dutch oven [4] over medium heat, 1 turn of the pan [4], then add beef and brown and crumble, season with salt, pepper, paprika, chili powder, cumin, coriander, and oregano or marjoram, stir, add chorizo and render a minute or 2. Add onion and reduce heat a bit, partially cover and cook 5-6 minutes to soften, add garlic, piquillos or roasted pepper and stir, add stock and tomatoes, reduce heat to low and simmer.
To a food processor bowl [5], add cilantro and parsley, shallots, chili peppers, vinegar, the lemon or lime juice, then pulse to finely chop, add EVOO [2] and pulse to incorporate.
Stir the herb sauce into the chili and ladle into bowls, top with potatoes and serve.
