How to Make Art S Chili
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add 1 pound of ground chuck and 1 large onion, chopped, and cook, breaking up the beef with a spoon, until the beef is browned and the onions are softened (about 8-10 minutes). Drain off any excess grease.
- Stir in 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce, 1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans (drained and rinsed), 1 (15 ounce) can pinto beans (drained and rinsed), 1 green bell pepper (chopped), 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- Bring the chili to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 20-30 minutes, or until the flavors have melded and the chili has thickened slightly. Stir occasionally.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Garnish with shredded cheese, sour cream, or chopped cilantro before serving.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
