How to Make Michelle's Special Secret Recipe Chili
- Brown 1 pound ground beef in a large pot over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
- Add 1 large onion, chopped, and 2 cloves garlic, minced, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce, 1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans (drained and rinsed), 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
- Stir in 1/2 cup beef broth and continue to simmer for 30 minutes, uncovered.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
- Serve over spaghetti, with crackers and a peanut butter sandwich on the side, or as desired. Top with shredded Parmesan, American, or cheddar cheese and fresh diced onions for extra zing!
