  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp ground oregano

Instructions

For Stove-top:

  1. In a Dutch oven, heat olive oil until shimmering hot.
  2. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant.
  3. Stir in the chopped onion and cook until slightly golden brown.
  4. Immediately add in the ground meat, chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano, cayenne pepper and salt. Continue cooking, using a wooden spoon to break up the meat into small crumbles. Let it brown for several minutes.
  5. Reduce the heat to the low, add in the diced tomatoes and cook stirring occasionally for 10 minutes.
  6. Pour in the broth, cover, and simmer over low heat for about 1 hour.
  7. When finished cooking, turn off the heat and add shredded cheddar cheese, allow to sit for 10 minutes until cheese is melted.
  8. Top with your favorite toppings and serve.

For Slow-Cooker:

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
  2. Add garlic and onion; sauté until slightly golden brown.
  3. Add ground beef and cook until browned, about 5-8 minutes, making sure to crumble the beef as it cooks.
  4. Now transfer the browned beef into a 6-qt slow cooker.
  5. Stir in diced tomatoes, broth, chili powder, ground cumin, paprika, ground oregano, cayenne pepper and salt.
  6. Cover and cook on LOW heat for 7-8 hours or on HIGH for 5-6 hours.
  7. Once finished cooking, add in the shredded red cheddar stir well to melt the cheese.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy

Notes

  • Be sure to cook your aromatics low and slow, you want to release all the flavors of the onion and garlic, without burning them.
  • Ideally, shred your own cheese. Pre shredded cheese is made with anti-caking agents, meaning it doesn't melt as well.
  • If you have time, you can make your ground beef even more tender by coating it in a mix of water, salt, and baking soda for 20 mins.
  • If cooking on the stovetop, you can let the chili simmer for a bit longer for even deeper flavors.
  • Cook the chili a day in advance for even more blending of flavors. Chili tastes even better the day after it's made.
  • Brown your meat! Whether on the stovetop or in the slow cooker, don't skip browning the ground beef, this makes for a richer chili and brings out all the flavors of the beef.
  • Serve your chili with lots of topping options!
