How to Make Ann's Close To Wendy's Style Chili Recipe
- Brown 1 lb ground beef in a large pot over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
- Add 1 tbsp chili powder, 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp oregano, 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional), and 1/2 tsp garlic powder. Stir to combine.
- Add 1 (15-ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained, 1 (15-ounce) can kidney beans, rinsed and drained, 1 (15-ounce) can pinto beans, rinsed and drained, 1 cup beef broth, and 1 (10-ounce) package frozen chopped onions and green bell peppers. Stir well.
