INGREDIENTS

6 oz Ground beef (93% lean)

0.25 cup Kidney beans

0.5 cup Tomato puree

0.5 cup Green bell pepper

0.25 cup Yellow onion

0 tsp Extra virgin olive oil

1 tsp Chili powder

PREPARATION

• 1

  Place a medium heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat and add the extra virgin olive oil.

• 2

  Once the oil is shimmering, add the finely diced yellow onion and green bell pepper, sautéing for 4-5 minutes until softened and the onion is translucent.

• 3

  Add the lean ground beef to the pot, using a wooden spoon to break it into small crumbles, and cook until it is completely browned and no pink remains.

• 4

  Stir in the chili powder, smoked paprika, ground cumin, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper, toasting the spices with the meat for 60 seconds until highly fragrant.

• 5

  Pour in the tomato puree, water, and the rinsed kidney beans, stirring thoroughly to incorporate all the browned bits from the bottom of the pot.

• 6

  Bring the chili to a light boil, then immediately reduce the heat to low and cover with a lid.

• 7

  Simmer the chili for 15-20 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and the flavors to fully develop.

• 8

  Remove from heat and serve immediately in a deep bowl while steaming hot.
