Equipment

  • Large sauce pan

Ingredients

  • 1 lbs Ground Beef
  • 1/2 c Yellow Onions chopped
  • 1/2 c Yellow Bell Pepper chopped
  • 2 tbsp Garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp Smoked Paprika
  • 1 tbsp Ground Cumin
  • 1 tsp Cayenne Pepper more if you like spice!
  • 1 tsp Chili Powder
  • 1 tsp Black Pepper
  • 1 tsp Oregano
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 14.5 oz Cans Diced Tomatoes no salt added
  • 1 c Chicken Broth

Instructions

  • Rinse and pat dry the onions and yellow bell pepper.
  • Place the ground beef in a large sauce pan and brown over medium high heat, stirring occasionally.
  • While the beef is browning, chop the onion and yellow bell pepper. You'll use about half of each, save the leftovers as toppers for a green leaf salad!
  • When the meat is no longer pink, remove it from the pan with a slotted spoon (leaving the grease in the pan) and set aside.
  • Add about 1/2 cup each of the chopped onion and yellow peppers to the sauce pan and cook until onion is translucent and yellow pepper is soft.
  • Add all the spices to the pan and stir, let them simmer for a minute.
  • Add meat back to pan and top with the diced tomatoes and chicken broth. Stir to mix thoroughly.
  • Let the chili come to a simmer, then reduce heat to very low and cook uncovered for about 1 hour to thicken the sauce.
  • Remove from heat and cover for 10 minutes. Then serve immediately or let cool and refrigerate for later.
  • Top with cheddar cheese and pinch or two the leftover onions and yellow pepper.

Notes

For the diced tomatoes, I get the Muir-Glen brand at my local grocery. It's also available on Amazon :
