Chili Bowl With Rice Recipe

Chili Preparation

1. 1

   Sauté the Vegetables

   In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper, and sauté for about 5 minutes until they are softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

2. 2

   Cook the Meat

   Add the ground beef or turkey to the pot. Cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until it is browned and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes.

3. 3

   Combine Ingredients

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

4. 4

   Simmer

   Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. This allows the flavors to meld together.
