How to Make Wendy's Chili Clone
- In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, over medium-high heat, brown 1 lb of ground beef, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain off any excess grease.
- In a blender, puree 1 (10.75 ounce) can of condensed French onion soup until smooth. Pour the pureed soup over the cooked beef.
- Cook and stir until the mixture thickens to the consistency of rice, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in 1 tbsp chili powder, 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp oregano, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, and 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional).
- Add 1 (15 ounce) can of undrained kidney beans, 2 tbsp tomato paste, and 1 (28 ounce) can of crushed tomatoes. Stir well to combine.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the chili is piping hot and the flavors have melded.
- Season with salt, black pepper, and Tabasco sauce to taste.
