Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 (15 ounce) can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, brown the ground beef over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  3. Stir in the crushed tomatoes, kidney beans, black beans, pinto beans, tomato sauce, and beef broth.
  4. Add the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, oregano, and cayenne pepper (if using). Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Bring the chili to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for at least 30 minutes, or up to 1 hour, stirring occasionally. The longer it simmers, the more the flavors will meld.
  6. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Serve hot.

Notes

Top with shredded cheese, sour cream, chopped onions, or your favorite chili toppings.
