Instructions
- Dice onion and bell pepper.
- In a large stockpot over medium heat, sauté onion and bell pepper for about 8 minutes. (I use 3 Tbsp. water/broth for no-oil sauté method, adding more as needed.)
- Meanwhile, mince garlic. When onion is translucent, add garlic, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, and oregano. Stir and sauté 1 minute.
- Add vegetable broth, tomatoes with juice, and tomato paste. Bring to a light boil.
- Meanwhile, rinse and drain beans.
- Add beans, cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 10 minutes (or longer) until thickened.
- Serve with any toppings of choice. (I love avocado!)
Notes
- *Chili powder: If you're concerned about the spiciness level of your chili powder, simply decrease the amount from 2 tablespoons to 1 tablespoon. Then slightly increase the other seasonings instead.
- Make it spicy: This recipe is mild/medium as written (if using mild chili powder) so add cayenne pepper, chipotle, jalapeño, or hot sauce if desired.
- Beans: Any two cans of beans will work great with this recipe (kidney, black, or pinto).
- Yield: Recipe makes about 7 cups chili.
