Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Hearty Beef Chili.
Step 1
In a spacious pot, brown the lean ground beef over medium-high heat, breaking it apart as you stir until it achieves a uniform color.
Step 2
Once browned, drain any excess grease to keep your chili lean and flavorful.
Step 3
Next, lower the heat to medium and introduce the rinsed kidney beans, diced green and red bell peppers, chopped onion, and minced garlic into the pot.
Step 4
Sauté these vibrant vegetables for 1 to 3 minutes, allowing them to soften and release their aromas.
Step 5
Then, pour in the tomato sauce and water, and sprinkle in chili powder to taste, stirring to combine.
Step 6
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, letting the flavors meld beautifully.
Step 7
Finally, reduce the heat to low and allow the chili to simmer uncovered for about 40 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure nothing sticks to the bottom.
Step 8
This slow cooking process will deepen the flavors, making your chili a comforting dish that warms the soul.
Step 9
Enjoy the delightful aroma wafting through your kitchen as you anticipate a hearty meal.
