Beef chili recipe because it’s still snowing in VA RECIPE BELOW Got it! Here's the updated recipe with the addition of tomato paste: ### Beef Chili Recipe Ingredients: - 3 lbs ground beef - 1 can of Sapporo Beer (12 oz) - 2 cups beef broth - 1 red bell pepper, diced - 1 green bell pepper, diced - 1 large yellow onion, diced - 4 cloves garlic, minced - 2 cans (14.5 oz each) diced tomatoes - 1 can (15 oz) kidney beans, drained and rinsed - 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed - 3 tbsp chili powder - 2 tsp ground cumin - 1 tsp smoked paprika - 1 tsp dried oregano - 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional for heat) - 2 tbsp tomato paste - Salt and pepper to taste - 2 tbsp olive oil or avocado oil Instructions: 1. Cook the Beef: - In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the avocado oil over medium-high heat. - Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon as it cooks. Drain excess fat if necessary. 2. Sauté Vegetables: - Add the diced onion, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and minced garlic to the pot. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes. 3. Add Tomato Paste: - Stir in the tomato paste and cook for another 2-3 minutes to allow it to caramelize slightly and deepen in flavor. 4. Seasoning: - Stir in the chili powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, dried oregano, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and pepper. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to toast the spices. 5. Add Liquids: - Pour in the can of Sapporo Beer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Let it simmer for about 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly. - Add the beef broth and diced tomatoes (with their juices). Stir to combine. 6. Simmer: - Bring the chili to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for at least 45 minutes to an hour, stirring occasionally. The longer it simmers, the better the flavors will meld. 7. Add Beans: - About 15 minutes before serving, stir in the kidney beans and black beans. Continue to simmer until the beans are heated through. 8. Adjust Seasoning: - Taste the chili and adjust the seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or spices as needed. 9. Serve: - Serve the chili hot, garnished with your favorite toppings such as shredded cheese, sour cream, chopped green onions, or fresh cilantro. #chili #comfortfood #beefchili #onestopchop
