How to Make Beef And Bean Chili
- Spray a large heavy-bottomed saucepan with cooking spray. Add 1 lb lean ground beef and 1 teaspoon chili powder. Cook over medium-high heat, breaking up the beef with a spoon, until no longer pink.
- Remove the cooked beef from the pan using a slotted spoon and set aside.
- Add 1 green bell pepper (chopped), 2 celery stalks (chopped), 1 medium onion (chopped), and 2 cloves garlic (minced) to the saucepan. Cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- Return the cooked beef to the saucepan.
- Stir in 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes with their juice, 1 (15 ounce) can of your favorite salsa, and 1 (15 ounce) can of kidney beans (rinsed and drained).
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low.
- While simmering, stir in 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, and 1 teaspoon dried basil.
- Simmer for 20 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add cayenne pepper, black pepper, or hot sauce to taste.
