BURGERS

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chili

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Add the diced onion and bell pepper, and sauté for about 5 minutes or until softened.

  3. 3

    Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula. Cook until browned, about 7-10 minutes.

  4. 4

    Stir in the chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes until the spices are fragrant.

  5. 5

    Add the canned diced tomatoes and kidney beans to the skillet. Stir well to combine.

  6. 6

    Reduce heat to low and let the chili simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  7. 7

    Assemble the Burgers

    While the chili is simmering, lightly toast the burger buns on a grill or in a toaster.

  8. 8

    Place a generous scoop of the chili on the bottom half of each toasted burger bun.

  9. 9

    Top with shredded cheddar cheese, shredded lettuce, sliced tomato, and pickles as desired.

  10. 10

    Cover with the top half of the burger bun and serve immediately.
