Preparation
1
Prepare your vegetables: Finely chop the onion, mince the garlic cloves, and dice the bell peppers into small pieces.
2
Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil. Once hot, add the lean ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until fully browned. Drain any excess fat.
3
Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and diced bell peppers to the pot with the browned beef. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables have softened.
4
Stir in the chili powder, ground cumin, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another minute, stirring constantly, to toast the spices and release their aroma.
5
Pour in the canned diced tomatoes (undrained) and the beef broth. Add the kidney beans (rinsed and drained). Stir everything well to combine.
6
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for at least 30 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and allow the flavors to meld and the chili to thicken.
7
Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Serve hot.
