Ingredients

Main Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound ground beef
1 large onion chopped
3 cloves garlic minced
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 28-ounce can diced tomatoes
2 cups beef broth
1 15-ounce can kidney beans drained and rinsed
2 large jalapeños sliced

Garnishes

1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

1 Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, about 5-7 minutes.
2 Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot. Cook until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
3 Stir in the chili powder, ground cumin, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes, allowing the spices to become fragrant.
4 Add the diced tomatoes and beef broth to the pot. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
5 Reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Let the chili simmer for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally.
6 Stir in the kidney beans and sliced jalapeños. Continue to simmer uncovered for another 15 minutes.
7 Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Remove the pot from heat.
8 Serve the chili hot with garnishes such as sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped cilantro.
