Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium yellow onion, diced
  • 1 medium bell pepper, diced
  • 1 medium jalapeño, minced (optional for more heat)
  • 4 cloves garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 28 ounces crushed tomatoes
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 15 ounces kidney beans, drained & rinsed
  • 15 ounces black beans, drained & rinsed
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust based on spice preference)
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon sugar (to balance acidity)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional for topping)
  • 0.5 cup sour cream (optional for topping)
  • 0.25 cup chopped green onions (optional for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Drain any excess grease if necessary.

Step 3

Add the diced onion, bell pepper, and minced jalapeño to the pot. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened.

Step 4

Stir in the minced garlic and tomato paste, cooking for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 5

Pour in the crushed tomatoes and beef broth, stirring to combine.

Step 6

Add the kidney beans, black beans, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, oregano, salt, black pepper, and sugar. Stir well to evenly distribute the spices.

Step 7

Bring the chili to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low. Simmer uncovered for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. If the chili is too thick, add a splash of beef broth to thin it out.

Step 9

Serve the chili hot with optional toppings like shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, and chopped green onions.
