Chili


This is my take on the chili I grew up eating. Honestly though, I forgot to buy a chili seasoning packet so I made up my own seasoning blend using the spices I had in my cabinet.... and it turned out pretty great! I will definitely make this again!

To make 4-6 servings of this hearty chili you will need:
  • 1 lb GROUND BEEF
  • 1 Tbs OLIVE OIL
  • 1 ONION, chopped
  • 2 Tbs GARLIC, minced
  • 3 oz. TOMATO PASTE
  • 1 (10 oz.) can of ROTEL
  • 1 (15 oz.) can LIGHT KIDNEY BEANS, riced
  • 4 cups (32 oz.) TOMATO JUICE
  • 1 Tbs WORCESTERSHIRE SAUCE
  • 1Tbs CHILI POWDER
  • 1 tsp PAPRIKA
  • 1 Tbs CUMIN
  • 1/2 tsp CAYENNE
  • 1/2 tsp GARLIC POWDER
  • 1 tsp SALT
  • 1/2 tsp PEPPER

Heat about a tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot. When the oil is hot, add the onion and garlic. Saute the onion and garlic until they start to turn translucent. Next, add the beef and cook it until it is no longer pink.


Then mix in the tomato paste and the can of Rotel.


Add the tomato juice, spices, and Worcestershire sauce next.


Lastly, add the beans! If you add them too early they will start to get mushy so make sure to add them at the end.


Once the chili is hot and all of the ingredients have been incorporated, serve it up! I like to top my chili with cheddar cheese, onion straws, and a little bit of sour cream. Yum!
