Cooking Directions

1

Cook the Beef

In a large pot over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked. Drain excess fat.

2

Sauté Vegetables

3

Add Remaining Ingredients

Stir in the canned diced tomatoes, kidney beans, chili powder, cumin, salt, black pepper, and water or broth. Mix well.

4

Simmer the Chili

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

5

Serve

Ladle the chili into bowls and top with shredded Monterey Jack cheese and diced red onion to taste.
