Cup Of Chili Beans Recipe

Prepare the Base

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

Add the Beans and Spices

Stir in the canned kidney beans, black beans, diced tomatoes, chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.

Simmer

Pour in the water or vegetable broth, and bring the mixture to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Let it cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Serve

Once the flavors have melded and the chili has thickened slightly, remove from heat. Serve hot in cups.
