Tips for Perfect Chili

Choosing the Right Meat: While ground beef is a classic choice for chili, don’t be afraid to mix it up based on your preference or what you have on hand. Ground turkey, chicken, or even a meatless option like tofu or additional beans can work wonderfully. Each option brings a different texture and flavor, making your chili unique every time.

Make It Ahead: One of the best things about chili is that it often tastes better the next day. The flavors have more time to meld together, creating an even richer taste. Consider making your chili a day in advance and simply reheating it when you're ready to serve. It's the perfect dish for busy weekends or when you have guests coming over.

  • 1 bell pepper chopped
  • 1 can 15 oz kidney beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can 15 oz black beans, drained and rinsed

Instructions
 

  • Heat the Olive Oil: In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
  • Brown the Beef: Add the ground beef to the pot and cook until it is fully browned. Make sure to break up the meat as it cooks. Once browned, drain any excess fat.
  • Sauté the Vegetables: Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and bell pepper to the pot. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and fragrant.
  • Add the Beans and Tomatoes: Stir in the kidney beans, black beans, diced tomatoes, and tomato paste until everything is well combined.

  • Season the Chili: Sprinkle in the chili powder, ground cumin, paprika, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper. Stir well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.
  • Simmer the Chili: Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. The longer it simmers, the more flavorful it will be.
  • Serve and Enjoy: Ladle the chili into bowls and top with your favorite optional toppings like shredded cheese, sour cream, chopped green onions, and jalapenos.
