This hearty chili recipe combines tender beef, beans, and a medley of spices for a comforting and flavorful dish.
Heat a large pot over medium heat and add the lean beef.
Stir frequently to ensure even browning and prevent sticking.
Once the beef is browned, add the chopped yellow onion, minced garlic, diced red bell pepper, and sliced celery.
Cook until the vegetables are softened for enhanced flavor.
Stir in the diced tomatoes, kidney beans with their liquid, tomato paste, chili powder, cumin, oregano, and cayenne pepper.
Mix well to combine all the ingredients evenly.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the chili simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Simmering allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Serve the chili hot, garnished with shredded sharp cheddar cheese and chopped green onion.
For an extra touch, serve with a dollop of sour cream or a squeeze of lime.
