Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large yellow or white onion diced
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup (66g) tomato paste
  • 4 cloves garlic minced or pressed
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 14-ounce can crushed or diced tomatoes
  • 1 15-ounce can pinto beans drained and rinsed
  • 1 15-ounce can kidney beans drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup beef broth

Toppings

  • sour cream optional
  • shredded cheese optional

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat oil over medium heat. Once hot add onion and cook until onions just begin to turn translucent around the edges, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add ground beef and salt, and cook, stirring often, until beef is browned. If the beef released an excessive amount of fat (more than a tablespoon or two), you can drain the meat or use a paper towel to absorb some of the grease
  3. Stir in tomato paste, garlic, and spices, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes until aromatic.
  4. Stir in tomatoes (with their juices), beans, and broth. Bring to a simmer and simmer the chili uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 20 to 30 minutes, until the meat is cooked through and chili has thickened.
  5. Taste and add salt and pepper if necessary. Spoon into bowls, top with sour cream and cheese if desired, and enjoy!
