Base Ingredients

Cheese Topping

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Dice the onion and red bell pepper. Mince the garlic cloves and set them aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Ground Beef

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add the Vegetables

    Add the diced onion, bell pepper, and minced garlic to the pot. Cook for another 5 minutes until the vegetables are soft.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Add Spices and Beans

    Stir in the chili powder, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix well. Then add the canned diced tomatoes, kidney beans, and black beans (drained and rinsed).

  2. 5

    Simmer the Chili

    Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Serving

  1. 6

    Prepare the Cheese Topping

    While the chili is simmering, prepare the cheese topping by gathering the shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, and chopped green onions.

  2. 7

    Serve the Chili Bowl

    Once the chili has thickened, ladle it into bowls. Top each serving with shredded cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and a sprinkle of green onions.
