Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, until the onion becomes translucent.

  2. 2

    Add Garlic and Vegetables

    Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant. Add the diced bell peppers, carrots, and zucchini, cooking for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.

  3. 3

    Incorporate Tomatoes and Beans

    Pour in the canned diced tomatoes (with their juices), kidney beans, and black beans. Stir well to combine the ingredients.

  4. 4

    Add Broth and Seasonings

    Add the vegetable broth, chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine, then bring the mixture to a boil.

  5. 5

    Simmer the Chili

    Reduce the heat to low and let the chili simmer uncovered for about 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from heat and ladle the chili into bowls. Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
