Instructions
In a large pot or Dutch Oven, heat the oil then sauté the onions and garlic over a medium heat. Add the ground beef.
Break up the ground beef as it cooks, until browned. Drain the fat from pot before adding the tomato paste, and all the spices. Stir to fully coat and cook for a couple minutes to meld. Add in the diced tomatoes, beef broth, and beans.
Bring the chili to a boil before reducing to a simmer.
Simmer for at least 20 minutes, until the ground beef is tender. Garnish chili with toppings of choice.
Recipe Notes
Use ground turkey: If you don't want to use ground beef, this chili recipe will also work well with ground turkey.Switch up the beans: Other types of canned beans will work too, we like black eyed peas in chili.Adjust the heat: Add a little more heat to your chili by using hot smoked paprika instead of sweet smoked paprika.Leftovers: Leftovers will keep well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, and can be heated through in the microwave or on the stovetop.
