How to Make My Cardiologist's Chili

  1. Brown the ground beef in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Add the chopped onion and green bell pepper to the pot and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in the crushed tomatoes, kidney beans, black beans, beef broth, chili powder, cumin, oregano, and cayenne pepper (if using).
  4. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for at least 30 minutes, or up to 1 hour, stirring occasionally. The longer it simmers, the more flavorful it becomes!
  5. Season with salt and pepper to taste before serving.
