How to Make Beef Black Bean Chili
- Heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
- While the beef cooks, drain and rinse one can of black beans. Mash these beans roughly with a fork.
- Add the mashed black beans, remaining black beans (undrained), salsa, tomato sauce, chili seasoning mix, and water (if using) to the browned beef.
- Stir well to combine all ingredients.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook for 10-15 minutes, or until the chili has thickened and the flavors have melded. Stir occasionally.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more chili powder for extra heat, or salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve hot, topped with sour cream and shredded cheddar cheese.
