Categories     Recipes

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 LBS Lean Ground Beef
2 Tablespoons Vegetable Oil
1 10oz Can of Beef Broth
2 Gloves Garlic, Minced
1 Cup Onion, Chopped
2 Large Bay Leaves
2 Tablespoon Ground Cumin
2 Tablespoons Oregano Leaves, Crushed
1 Tablespoon Paprika
1 Tablespoon Red Pepper, Crushed
24 oz Crushed Tomato
4 Tablespoons Chili Powder
1 Jalapeno, Diced
2 Small Cans Chili Beans
3 Tablespoons Cornmeal

Steps:

  • In a large stockpot, sauté your minced garlic and onion with vegetable oil, over a medium heat.
  • Add your ground beef and break it up until it's browned off.
  • Add beef broth and let it simmer for a few minutes over medium heat.
  • Throw all of your spices, except for chili powder, into the chili and occasionally stir the mixture. I keep my bay leaves whole and just pull them out at the end. You can crush bay leaves though.
  • Add your can of crushed tomato and stir.
  • Add your diced jalapeño, chili bean and chili powder. If you want it spicy, add the jalapeño seeds into your chili. If you want to keep it mild, only add half of the jalapeño (no seeds) or omit all together.
  • Lastly, add your cornmeal. This acts a thickening agent. Stir it into your chili and keep your chili simmering for another 10 minutes. If you want even thicker chili, bring it to a boil and then reduce to a simmer, after adding your cornmeal.

Tips:

  • Soak the pinto beans overnight. This will help them cook more quickly and evenly.
  • Use a variety of chili peppers. This will give your chili a more complex flavor. If you like a milder chili, use fewer serrano peppers and more Anaheim peppers.
  • Brown the ground beef well. This will help to develop its flavor and prevent it from becoming greasy.
  • Don't skimp on the spices. Chili is a dish that can handle a lot of spice, so don't be afraid to add a generous amount of chili powder, cumin, and oregano.
  • Let the chili simmer for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Serve the chili with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include shredded cheese, sour cream, diced onions, and avocado.
