Instructions

  1. Creating Homemade Beef Chili is straightforward. Follow these steps to make your delicious chili:
  2. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
  3. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula. Drain excess fat if needed.
  4. Stir in the chopped onion, garlic, and bell pepper. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  5. Add the chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using). Stir well to coat the meat and vegetables in the spices.

  7. Stir in the kidney beans, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
  8. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let simmer for 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  9. Taste the chili and adjust seasoning as necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or spices to your preference.
  10. Once the chili has thickened and the flavors have melded, remove from heat and serve hot.
