Method

Cooking Directions

1

Cook the Meat

In a large pot over medium heat, add olive oil. Once hot, add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon.

2

Add Vegetables

Stir in the chopped onion, garlic, and bell pepper. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.

3

Combine Ingredients

Add the canned diced tomatoes (with their juice), kidney beans, chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.

4

Simmer

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

5

Serve

Ladle the chili into cups and top with shredded cheese, sour cream, and chopped green onions before serving.
