Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 large Onion chopped
- 2 Garlic cloves minced
- 1 lb Ground beef Halal
- 2 cans 15 oz each Canned red kidney beans, drained
- 2 cans 14.5 oz each Canned diced tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
- 2 cups Beef broth
- 2 tablespoons Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cheddar cheese shredded (for serving)
- Green onions chopped (for serving)
Instructions
Preparing the Base
- Heat the Oil: Begin by heating the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. It’s like warming up before a workout, but with less sweating and more sizzling.
- Sauté the Onion and Garlic: Add the chopped onion to the pot, stirring until it’s soft and translucent. Toss in the garlic and cook for another minute, just until the kitchen smells like heaven (or a really good Italian restaurant).
Cooking the Beef
- Brown the Beef: Crumble the ground beef into the pot. Cook it until it’s no longer pink, breaking it apart with your spoon as it cooks. Think of it as giving the beef a good massage.
- Adding the Magic (Beans and Tomatoes)
- Beans and Tomatoes: Stir in the kidney beans, diced tomatoes, and tomato paste. The mixture should start to look like the chili of your dreams at this point.
Spicing Things Up
- Season: Add the chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Now the taste really starts to come through. Adjust the seasoning to your liking because, after all, you’re the boss of your chili.
Let It Simmer
- Simmer: Pour in the beef broth and give everything a good stir. Reduce the heat to low and let your chili simmer uncovered for about 45 minutes to an hour. Stir occasionally, just to remind the chili you’re still there.
Serving
- Serve: Once your chili is thick and the flavors have melded together like old friends, it’s ready to serve. Ladle it into bowls, and top with shredded cheddar cheese and green onions. Or don’t. It’s your chili world, and we’re just living in it.
