Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Chop the onion and mince the garlic.

  2. 2

    Cook the Beef

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat.

  3. 3

    Sauté Vegetables

    Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  4. 4

    Stir in the chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Then add the black beans, kidney beans, corn, diced tomatoes, and water or beef broth.

  5. 5

    Simmer

    Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Let it simmer uncovered for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Serve hot, garnished with your choice of toppings.
