Instructions
Making chili is easy when you follow these straightforward steps:
- Heat Oil: In a large pot over medium heat, warm the olive oil.
- Sauté Vegetables: Add the diced onion, garlic, and bell pepper to the pot. Sauté for about 5 minutes, until softened.
- Cook Meat: Add the ground beef or turkey. Break it apart with a spoon, cooking until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
- Season: Stir in the chili powder, cumin, and smoked paprika. Mix well and cook for another 2 minutes to release the spices' fragrance.
- Add Tomatoes: Pour in the diced tomatoes with their juices, beans, and beef broth. Stir everything together.
- Simmer: Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for about 30-40 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Final Seasoning: Taste the chili and adjust salt and pepper as needed.
- Serve: Once thickened to your desired consistency, the chili is ready to be served.
